The squad is negative and will receive Huesca in Zubieta

The coronavirus, like the rest of the teams, is conditioning the preseason of Real Sociedad. An atypical preparation time this summer due to its duration and its form. In Zubieta they are not strangers and they work under the influence of a strict protocol with which they try to reduce the risk of contagion among their players, coaching staff and workers. But it is not easy. The third positive for COVID-19 since returning to work has set off all the alarms in the San Sebastian clubAs a precaution, they decided to suspend the trip to Portugal, where they planned to play two friendlies against Río Ave and Familicao. But the preseason must continue, and that is why after undergoing new PCR tests, the intention of the club is to replace those two friendlies on Portuguese soil with a match that has closed almost in record time against Huesca. The fact that in the tests this Friday no new positives were detected contributes to the return to normality, if the way of working these days can be described as normal.

The Royal Society has announced that jA new friendly will take place this Saturday at 6:00 p.m. in Zubieta against Huesca. It will be the second pre-season game for the San Sebastian club against a much more demanding rival than the first, which was against Logroñés, recently promoted to Second. Now it is his turn for a rival of the same category, a Huesca who has returned to the First Division after completing a great season in the silver category. It will be the way to return to the usual work of this time of preparation for the San Sebastian club, which has not known any new case of coronavirus, after the third player who tested positive on Wednesday after he felt symptoms on Tuesday. At first, Imanol Alguacil will count this Saturday with the loss of this third positive player whose identity is unknown, in addition to Martin Merquelanz, Joseba Zaldua and Adnan Januzaj.

With the match against Huesca la Real will return to group work, because since the third positive case of the squad was known, they had returned to individual training, controlling each step of the players in Zubieta, waiting to know the results of the latest PCR tests. They wanted to avoid having more infected, hoping that they would all test negative. Having been like this, the club has decided to organize the friendly against Huesca to advance in the preparation, and from Monday, when the squad returns to work after resting on Sunday, they will return to collective training as had been done until Tuesday of this week.
