Real Sociedad open to Brais Mendez sale amid growing interest

Though no final decision has been made, the club are understood to be open to offers, particularly as interest builds from both La Liga rivals and clubs abroad.
Mendez, 28, remains an influential figure in Imanol Alguacil's squad, but his strong market value has made him a potential candidate for a strategic sale.
The Spaniard earns just over €42,000 a week and is under contract until June 2028, meaning any transfer would likely command a significant fee. Real Sociedad may look to reinvest those funds into new signings or long-term infrastructure projects, aligning with a broader trend across Spanish football.
Clubs in Italy and the Premier League are reportedly monitoring the situation closely, with some already making informal enquiries. Domestically, several top-half La Liga sides are also said to be interested.
Having enjoyed solid revenue growth in recent seasons, the Basque club may now look to strike a balance between sporting ambition and sustainable development.
