Real Sociedad kicks off pre‑season with Remiro and a cohort of loanees

Real Sociedad kicked off its pre‑season with Alex Remiro in goal and a cohort of loaned youngsters. Forward Brais Méndez left after four years, while loanees Javi López, Goti, Pacheco and Carlos Fernández joined the squad at Zubieta.

Coach Pellegrino Matarazzo is assessing Remiro’s contract situation and experimenting with various tactical formations. The camp aims to give the club’s young prospects valuable playing time and to fill the gaps left by departing internationals before the new campaign begins.
