Imanol Alguacil gave a party to the Real Sociedad squad this weekend. And many of the txuri-urdin first team players have taken the opportunity to make short breaks to disconnect from the rigors of the competition’s busy schedule. This is the case of Adnan Januzaj and Alexander Isak, who have traveled together to London. The problem has been that the presence of the Swedish striker in London has triggered the rumors about his possible transfer to Arsenal, taking into account the interest of the ‘gunner’ to take over his services in January. But this trip is not behind any contact to sign for Arsenal in this final stretch of the winter market.
The two Real Sociedad players left on Friday, at the end of morning training in Zubieta, on a direct flight to London. And they will stay there until Sunday when they are scheduled to return to San Sebastián. Isak has traveled with his Real teammate, Adnan Januzaj, with whom he shares a very good friendship and who has published several images on his Instagram account in which he quotes the Swedish player and calls him “my brother (my brother)”. Images of the Real players walking through a department store and entering a party venue have been published through social networks. His presence in London has sparked all kinds of rumours, to the point that some users have decided to investigate whether or not the vehicle Isak had gotten out of was registered in London or not.. Delirious. There are those who even has linked Isak’s presence in London with a possible negotiation for him to sign for Arsenal. The ‘gunner’ club has shown a lot of interest in the Swedish player in this winter transfer market.
But in the San Sebastian club they insist that they are very calm with the situation of Alexander Isaac. They knew I was going to be in London with Januzaj this weekend, and they are expected to train normally on Monday in Zubieta to start preparing thoroughly for the Cup match against Betis. At Real Sociedad they insist that they have no intention of negotiating Isak’s departure now in January, and that in the last few hours he has not had any formal news from Arsenal to sign him, not before throughout this month of January. There have been no official contacts, nor a formal offer. That is to say, there is no open conversation for your transfer, nor to notify that the Arsenal go to pay his clause, which amounts to 90 million euros. Isaac is the star striker of a Real who plays almost his entire season in the demanding month of February that lies ahead, and cannot afford to lose his attacking reference.
