Barcelona Increase Interest In Alexander Isak

Feb 22, 2021 11:02 PM

Barcelona have intensified their interest in signing Alexander Isak of Real Sociedad. 

Martin Braithwaite has been Barca's only No. 9 since September, when they sold Luis Suarez to Atletico Madrid in a deal that could be worth up to €11 million.

Isak, 21, is a player who has been on the club's radar for a while and his performances since moving to Spain in 2019 have impressed Barca scouts, who believe similarities between Real Sociedad and Barca's playing styles would ease his adaption.

Real Madrid Terminates Martin Odegaard Loan At Sociedad Early

Aug 11, 2020 8:17 AM

Real Madrid has informed Real Sociedad they want to end the loan of Martin Odegaard early.

Real Sociedad had expected to have Odegaard on their club again for the 20-21 season.

Zinedine Zidane made a last minute change of plans with Odegaard as he seeks more options in central midfield. There is a feeling he can bring quality and creativity to the squad and compete with Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Isco and Federico Valverde in midfield.

The playmaker has been a huge success in San Sebastian. Odegaard looked forward to regular playing time with Sociedad.
