Real Sociedad 2026/27 squad outlook: departures and contract updates

Real Sociedad is reshaping its roster ahead of the 2026/27 campaign. Coach Pellegrino Matarazzo notes that among the 27 players under contract, several contracts are expiring, opening space for new signings.

Young talent Jon Martín is being considered for a first‑team shirt, while goalkeepers Alex Remiro and Unai Marrero remain secured by their contracts. In defense, the exits of Aritz Elustondo and Duje Caleta‑Car, coupled with the return of Javi López and Jon Pacheco, could shift the backline balance.

The club aims to bring in two or three new players before the season starts.
