And the question that is begging to be asked is "at €16m for such quality, why wasn't he a target?"

Maybe he made it clear that he did not want to move to England

Wouldn't be unusual

Lots of players don't want to leave their own shores

If the reports are to be believed, he did indicate he would like to play in the PL. And even if that's not the case, wouldn't have hurt to try and convince him. In any case, neeext!

More itk busted

I bet he's looking forward to working under his new manager.

I'm beginning to hate Balague

I'm beginning to hate Balague

I hate his general showcasing of footballers ... he even talks about their feelings and emotions like he is a psychiatrist.

If.


If we were interested then I am sure we would have spoken to an intermediary first and found out whether he was open to a move to England.

 

[Nigeyman]

The guardian seems to think our interest in him is serious and they are usually pretty reliable.

Would be nice to see Balague get one wrong as well.

Yep 100% official he is headed back to Sociedad. So that's a few "ITK's" who have been caught red handed!

I don't believe it is official. It seems he has a few offers and it doesnt not look like anything has been signed and sealed.

That's the only straw i'm holding onto as well..

 

[NorwegianSpursFan]

I'm getting the feeling that he's just waiting to see if some better offers comes along.

Pogba replacement perhaps? (ducks for cover)

 

[We are Tottenham]

I think Illarramendi...[ary boy...would be a no brainer]
the stats look impressive.

I think only one to fear is sociedad .. He is a Basque lad right ? .. Those ties are strong ... But it's s no brainer for levy .. Great re sell value back to his roots if he chooses us for a few years .. Wud be a very good signing so on that score we won't get him lol

Nothing on their official site. Anyone with Twitter who could check it up there?
I read something about Real Madrid wanting 16 mill euro, and that Sociedad wasnt able to do that. But hey, I guess I'm clutching at straws

He is from Mutriku, and is a Basque. Also, he came from Sociedad to Real Madrid in 2013.
