DBasia.news – Arsenal left back, Nacho Monreal, is reportedly getting closer to returning to his hometown and strengthening Real Sociedad.
Quoted from Express, Monreal is getting closer to joining Sociedad after agreeing to the duration of the two-year contract offered by them. Sociedad will be the fourth club strengthened by Monreal if he moves there.
In his career, the Pamplona born defender, February 26, 1986, has strengthened Osasuna (2006-2011), Malaga (2011-2013), and Arsenal. Monreal’s departure is also not unusual anymore.
The reason is, Arsenal have recruited Kieran Tierney who plays as a left back. Tierney will compete with Sead Kolasinac for the regular playing position under the tutelage of Unai Emery. In addition, Ainsley Maitland-Niles can also play as a left back.
Arsenal’s contract is still left for another year, however, if an agreement has been reached with Sociedad regarding the player’s price, Monreal has the chance to leave and return to play in Spain.
