The verbal agreement that existed between the Sevillian team and AC Milan has remained so, since the San Sebastian team has agreed to the operation and does not intend to let him go to Serie A.
As far as everyone knew, full-back Juan Miranda already had a verbal agreement with AC Milan, but Real Sociedad proves that wasn't the case. Until the player officially signs, he will continue to be in the portfolio of several clubs as well as the San Sebastian team. Roberto Olabe has already contacted AC Talent, the Olivarians' agency.
Everything points to Real Sociedad wanting to acquire Miranda's services as they have decided not to exercise the purchase option included in Kieran Tierney's contract. Although he came from Arsenal as a great winger, what he showed at the Reale Arena didn't satisfy anyone. Which is why they'll only have him until the end of the season.
According to Miranda, his priority is to stay in LaLiga, which is a plus for Real Sociedad
Sports management Txuri Urdin works from a very interesting starting point. The left-back wants to stay in Spain and that means the Basque team has an advantage over the Rossoneri team. Of course, the player's real priority is to stay at Betis, but he doesn't like the extension offer they're putting on the table.
This aspect is another plus point for Real Sociedad as they still have a clear path to signing if they know how to negotiate it. Olabe has met with Aperribay to agree on the salary limits and the contract they can offer the Sevillian winger. At the same time, they have contacted the Gunner team to communicate their desire not to purchase Tierney.
There are further offers for Juan Miranda that are scaring Real Sociedad
The Andalusian currently has two clear offers to change the Betico club and, incidentally, LaLiga. As I said, some come from AC Milan, others from the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund. Apparently the German club is very interested in the youngster's talent as Edin Terzic (coach) believes Ian Maatsen should return to Chelsea.
The character of Juan Miranda fits perfectly here, a defensive winger who switches to attack in a matter of seconds. But behind the Italian and German teams are others such as Benfica, Porto, Naples and Newcastle United. Without a doubt, Real Sociedad must hurry before these proposals take shape.
