Real Sociedad has set its sights on Guido Rodríguez to strengthen its midfield for the upcoming season. With Martín Zubimendi closer to leaving, the club from San Sebastián needs a reliable midfielder, and the Argentine from West Ham United fits perfectly into the profile sought by Imanol Alguacil. His experience and ability to balance the game make him an ideal piece for the txuri-urdin scheme.

Rodríguez, who was close to signing with Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid in the past, ended up at West Ham after not renewing with Betis. However, the dismissal of Julen Lopetegui led to him losing prominence in the English team, where Graham Potter barely includes him. Faced with this situation, the Hammers' management seeks to offload him at a reasonable price, as his high salary is a hindrance for a player who has been relegated to the bench.

Real Sociedad wants Guido Rodríguez as Zubimendi's replacement

Betis considered the possibility of his return, but Manuel Pellegrini has prioritized other positions in the market. This has opened the door to Real Sociedad, which unsuccessfully tried to sign him last summer. Now, with an urgent need in midfield, Olabe wants to secure his incorporation before leaving his position as sporting director.

The operation could depend on the team's qualification for European competitions, a key factor to convince the player. Additionally, Villarreal also closely monitors Rodríguez's situation, so the people from San Sebastián will need to move quickly if they want to secure his signing.
