Gonçalo Guedes Completes Real Sociedad Transfer from Wolves

Gonçalo Guedes is set to return to La Liga with a transfer from Wolverhampton Wanderers to Real Sociedad, marking a significant step in his career revival. The 28-year-old Portuguese forward, who previously impressed in Spain with Valencia and Villarreal, has agreed to join the Basque club for a fee reportedly around €11 million, significantly lower than the €30 million Wolves initially paid. Guedes left Wolves' training camp to undergo medical examinations and finalize the contract with Real Sociedad, despite interest from Turkish club Besiktas. At Real Sociedad, he will face strong competition for a starting role from players like Takefusa Kubo and Mikel Oyarzabal, as the club aims to strengthen its squad for La Liga and European competitions. The transfer is viewed as a mutual opportunity: Guedes seeks to regain his best form in a familiar league, while Real Sociedad hopes to benefit from his versatility and experience. Both clubs and the player preferred a permanent exit, with the deal expected to be officially announced soon after all formalities are completed.
