Two days ago, we covered claims from Spain that Real Sociedad president Jokin Aperribay and sporting director Roberto Olabe travelled to England to hold talks with Manchester City for Sergio Gómez.
On Tuesday, Estadio Deportivo stated the La Liga side aren’t willing to meet the Citizens’ demands to buy the left-back, and that their aim is to sign him on a loan deal.
AS say the Spanish club’s first contact with Manchester City has been positive, and they have found out that Premier League winners are ready to let him leave.
Gómez ‘has asked’ Manchester City to let him leave and he has a few offers on the table. He favours Real Sociedad and this could help them when negotiating with the English champions.
Sources close to the deal have told AS that talks between Real Sociedad and Manchester City have been ‘satisfactory’, but the deal isn’t close to being completed.
There’s ‘good harmony’ between the parties, who all want a transfer, and taking this into account, they understand that an agreement would be reached for Gómez to join La Real. In short, all parties, especially Real Sociedad, are optimistic of concluding the operation.
