The Txuri Urdin club’s sporting directors have been firm in their response to Manchester United’s inquiries about the Dutch midfielder’s signing. It’s true that they want him in San Sebastián, but they won’t lose their heads during the operation.
Donny Van de Beek is one of Real Sociedad’s targets and Imanol Alguacil is expected in the operation Roberto Olabe finds gaps. Although it is true that we are dealing with an international soccer player who has already worn the rubber band of his senior national team (Netherlands). But in relation to his current club (Manchester Utd) didn’t fare very well.
Therefore, English club definitely want to support Van de Beek, but not only that, they also want Real Sociedad to pay a heavy price. The first to oppose such conditions was, of course, Roberto Olabe, who did not consider the negotiations to be over but put a stop to them.

Van de Beek will join Real Sociedad on Olabe’s terms
More concretely and concretely, the Devil team want to sell the Dutch midfielder and his price would be set at 29 million euros. United paid £39 to Ajax for most of their sporting rights in the 2020 summer market. In San Sebastián, however, the situation was assessed differently and a counter-offer was made.
The terms set by Reala’s sporting director include a one-year loan with a non-binding purchase option, which cannot exceed 15 million euros. The San Sebastián team takes into account that the player is suffering from a complicated injury (torn meniscus), which could delay his adjustment to Imanol Alguacil’s spinal cord scheme.
Olabe is also considering another important move at Real Sociedad
The Dutchman’s possible arrival isn’t the only thing sporting director Txuri Urdin is working on and he is currently close to signing the third newcomer to the market. We refer to the Russian Arsen Zakharyan, who excels at Dinamo Moscow and at his young age (20 years) has become the main carrier of the Belo Golubye club.
Sources close to Real Sociedad say that the cooperation between the two sides has already been finalized and the player will travel to San Sebastián. It’s even possible that he’s in the squad that plays Celta de Vigo this Saturday, August 19. Numerically, Roberto Olabe completed the operation for 12 million euros, signing the player for five seasons.
