Real Sociedad could have a great representation at the World Cup, with 14 players who have passed through the txuri-urdin team. According to Diario Vasco, goalkeepers Gero Rulli and Matt Ryan, defenders Caleta-Car, Kieran Tierney and Theo Hernández, midfielders Martin Zubimendi and Mikel Merino, and forwards Take Kubo, Alexander Isak, Sorloth, Mikel Oyarzabal and Gonçalo Guedes could be in the tournament. Julen Lopetegui, who played for Real Sociedad, could take the reins of Qatar. The muscle injury of Barrenetxea in Girona damaged his options to play in the World Cup. Rulli marked the way in 2014, arriving at 22 years old from Estudiantes after the departure of Bravo to Barcelona. He was the undisputed number 1 at Anoeta for five seasons, playing 170 games before playing later for two European champions, Ajax and Marseille. Real Sociedad has been a springboard for many players who have reached the elite of football. Oyarzabal is a reference for Luis de la Fuente and Zubimendi waits behind Rodri, both carrying the flag of Zubieta in America. Real Sociedad has proven to be a team that can produce high-level talent. As time goes by, it will be seen if these players can make history in the World Cup. Real Sociedad has high expectations for its players, who could play a great role in the tournament. So, the question is, what if Real Sociedad played in the World Cup? The answer will only be given by time. But one thing is certain, Real Sociedad has great potential and its players are ready to prove it. But what is clear is that the team has a lot of talent and a great coach. And with players like Oyarzabal and Zubimendi, they could go far in the tournament.
