Mayoral has been long term target of Alguacil as the manager look to bolster his attacking options for the next season.

According to Football Espana, “Real Sociedad could make a summer move for Real Madrid striker Borja Mayoral according to a report in Marca this morning. Mayoral, who has impressed during a season long loan at Levante in the 2018-19 campaign, has been heavily linked with an exit from the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, with Zinedine Zidane set for a squad overhaul over the summer. According to the report, Mayoral is open to a move to the Anoeta, and the Basque side are hopeful of completing the deal before the 22-year old leave on international duty with the Spanish U21 side next month.”
