Marca has reported that the departure of the 29-year-old Spanish full-back Álvaro Odriozola from Real Sociedad is accelerating. It was noted that Álvaro Odriozola did not take part in the Friday training session at Zubieta, which was led by Sergio Francisco, suggesting his impending exit from the club. His contract with Real Sociedad is valid until June 2029, and according to Transfermarkt, his current market value stands at €1.00 million. This marks a substantial decline from his peak valuation of €30 million in 2018, the year he was transferred from Real Sociedad to Real Madrid for a reported sum of €32 million, before making a return in 2023 for €1.5 million.
