MD has confirmed that Real Sociedad is interested in Sead Kolasinac. This interest was first reported by Noticias de Gipuzkoa. Kolasinac is left-footed and is set to turn 33 during the World Cup with Bosnia. His contract with Atalanta has one season left.

Real Sociedad's director of football, Erik Bretos, is considering Atalanta's Sead Kolašinac as the club seeks to strengthen its defense. The 32-year-old Bosnian international is an experienced, left-footed central defender, which is a profile the club is seeking. It is reported that he is one of several names under consideration and is not a priority at this time. His contract with the Italian club expires in June 2027, and this summer represents a key opportunity for Atalanta to receive a transfer fee. A potential complication for any transfer is Kolašinac's current participation in the World Cup with Bosnia, which is expected to slow down transfer activities. Kolašinac joined Atalanta in July 2023, has 65 caps for his country, and has also been linked with Schalke 04. His current market value is €4.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
