The last-minute departure of Mikel Goti was explained by Erik Bretos. Matarazzo described Mikel Goti as a talented player who is limited to one position and had few opportunities to play at Real Sociedad. Matarazzo also stated that Goti's departure is positive for his future and that he needed to play.

According to AS, Mikel Goti has been left out by Pellegrino Matarazzo in recent matches. The player went out on loan in the previous winter transfer window because the American coach did not include him in his plans. Although he returned this summer intending to prove he could have a place in the team, Goti is currently being left out of matches.

According to Marca, Mikel Goti is not part of the plans for the attacking midfield spot at Real Sociedad, especially if Mikel Oyarzabal moves into that position.

It is expected that a new destination will be found during the pre-season for Mikel Goti, a 24-year-old Spanish attacking midfielder, because he has not secured a place in the Real Sociedad squad after his loan at Córdoba. His contract with Real Sociedad is valid until June 2028. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €1.50m.
