Alvaro Odriozola’s Departure from Real Madrid: A Unique Transfer Announcement
Alvaro Odriozola’s departure from Real Madrid marks the end of an era, as the Spanish defender embarks on a new journey with Sociedad, signing a six-year deal that extends until June 2029. Real Madrid will receive €1.5 million, along with add-ons, as part of the transfer agreement.
Sociedad chose a rather unconventional route to announce this transfer, dropping a unique and somewhat bizarre video that left fans intrigued. The video features a horse, which might seem puzzling at first glance. However, there’s a simple explanation behind this choice.
Alvaro Odriozola has harbored a passion for horse racing since his childhood, and his boyhood club, Sociedad, is well aware of this personal interest.
During his time at the Bernabeu since his arrival in 2018, Odriozola has contributed significantly to Real Madrid’s success, accumulating an impressive six titles, including two Club World Cups, one European Super Cup, one La Liga, one Copa del Rey, and one Spanish Super Cup. In addition to his defensive prowess, Odriozola made his mark offensively, netting three goals and providing ten assists in 49 appearances for the club. His departure marks the beginning of a new chapter for both player and club, with promising prospects for the future.
