Real Sociedad have joined the race for Samu Omorodion’s services following his unsuccessful move to Chelsea. The Atletico youngster will only leave on a transfer for a fee of over 30 million euros.
Carlos Fernandez is not convincing at Real Sociedad, whose sporting directors are on the lookout for a new forward. According to reports in Spain, the board have joined the race for Samu Omorodion’s services after his arrival at Chelsea was thwarted by Enzo Maresca.
The medical went well, but negotiations took a sharp turn towards the end and that is why the deal that was on the verge of being signed broke down in the end.
The bosses of Civitas Metropolitano will allow the sale of their young striker if it is for a figure higher than 30 million euros, a claim that they have no intention of satisfying from San Sebastian. The Donostiarras would be happy to sign a simple loan transfer because the option to buy that would satisfy the Madrid-based club would be for a similar price.
Juventus and Napoli are also interested in signing him, so Real Sociedad will find it difficult to make progress on this front. The coffers of Turin and Diego Armando Maradona are both strong, so they are more likely to launch a bid that would satisfy Atletico.
