Sørloth, presented: “I want to help by scoring a lot of goals”

Alexander Sørloth is already a new player in the Resl Society. After having exercised for the first time in the morning under the orders of Imanol Alguacil in Zubieta, in the afternoon he was already presented in the press room of the Reale Arena.

Happy. “I am very happy to be here, I have spoken with the club for a long time and I am really looking forward to being here because I like the attacking style and good defense of this team and I want to contribute to all of that and succeed. The city seems fantastic to me and we are going to be very happy here ”.

How do you define yourself. “I am a big and physical striker, I like to go behind the defender and I like to score above all, but also to assist others.”

What attracted you to La Real. “The whole package. The most important thing is what is happening in sports, because the team is progressing year after year, and I want to play in Europe, and it is important to play in a team that always competes and wants to improve. And this team scores a lot of goals and I'm a forward and I want to score a lot of goals here ”.

Assignment for a year or more in the Real. “That will be seen. For now I am only focusing on the first year and getting it right. But if I'm happy, and they are happy with me, why not, we should see it ”.

They compare him to Haaland. “When I'm working and playing football, I don't think about being compared to Haaland, but about what I have to do. I focus only on that ”.

Trajectory. “In Turkey he was incredible, very good and scoring a lot of goals, with a very good team and playing in every game, and I was very integrated into the team. But then there were downturns, although I want to focus on the positive to do very well in San Sebastián ”.

He signs up to debut against Levante. “Yes, I think I am physically very well, I trained very well the first day, but I have not trained since Sunday and it has only been a few days, I am prepared, maybe not to start the game, but to come and be on the bench. ”.

Welcome from the squad. “It has been very good, I am very happy to welcome me, it seems that they are nice guys, there are people who speak English and they help me, they are coaches and want to play football, all very positive.”

Isak. “He is a very good player, he already saw Sweden in the Eurocup, he is very hungry and there would be no problem playing together if the coach wants.”

Going figure. “It's a typical question, but I don't like putting numbers on myself, first I want to play and then I want to help the team in everything, and we'll see how many goals he scored then.”

Idol. “I don't like comparing myself to other players, but as a child I liked Drogba a lot and he was my idol, and I liked to look at things he did to improve.”

Aperribay: “We wish Bautista and Willian José luck”

Jokin Aperribay, president of the Real Sociedad, wanted to detail different aspects of the current situation of the San Sebastian club.

How Sørloth is booked. “This is activated on Thursday, when Betis called us for Willian José, and that same Thursday we contacted the people of Sorloth, because we were prepared to act, and we got the player we wanted to come.”

There will be no more signings. “We are not doing any market management, but the templates are closed on August 31. It's obvious but that's the way it is, I'm not hiding anything ”.

Assignments. “Bautista, we will communicate his transfer to Leganés soon. And Sagnan, if there is a good option for the player and for the club, we will take advantage of it. I wish Bautista and Willian José the best. Jon goes to Leganés and I wish Willi the best in his new club ”.

Controversy with the raffle of the tickets. “Let's hope that those who have played them twice in a row will applaud us a lot. But we only did it for the month of August, with a 20% capacity, we made that criterion, we did not want to make more of the fans. We think that it has its advantages and disadvantages, what has happened is an inconvenience and we are very sorry. We will try to make September more favorable for the greatest number of our fans, when we know the restrictions for the new month ”.

Resale of tickets on the internet. “It is not easy for the club to take measures because it is allowed to leave the season ticket. But we will see what happened, we will investigate. We absolutely disagree and will try to find out but it will be difficult for us to set limits on resale. But if we ask that those who do not want to come be respectful with the members who want to come ”.
