Real Sociedad aim to repeat the Guedes and Soler formula with Real Madrid | OneFootball

Real Sociedad are eyeing Bernabéu opportunities to replicate last year’s Guedes and Soler-style deals, with Spain’s market still dragging.

According to Superdeporte, the Copa del Rey winners are targeting loan moves for Mastantuono and Gonzalo García, players seeking top-flight minutes in a stable environment as the new season nears.

The winger cost Real Madrid 60 million euros a year ago, set against Bayern paying 50 for Olise amid the Lamine Yamal boom. His talent is clear, though hype was overstated in some quarters, and Matarazzo’s side struggled when Kubo or Barrenetxea were out. He can also operate inside, useful after Brais departed, but securing a loan looks complicated.

Up front, La Real have Oskarsson as centre-forward, with Karrikarburu not in the 26/27 plans. Oyarzabal, a world champion, has proved a reliable nine rather than a false nine. Matarazzo wants additional profiles for when he uses the Eibar native as a second striker.

European demands are shaping the window. La Real will play the Europa League after lifting the Copa del Rey, so shortfalls in depth could bite across a long, crowded season. That concern also applies to Villarreal and Betis in the Champions League.
