In a recent exclusive interview with Marca, Real Sociedad's central midfielder Subi Mendi opened up and shared his journey as a Europa League winner and his outlook for the future. He confessed that when he came on as a substitute in the second half of the Europa League final, his nerves were quickly replaced with a desire to win, and that strength from the team allowed him to quickly integrate into the rhythm of the game and contribute to the team's eventual victory.
Subbimendi also spoke about how his life has changed since becoming a Eurocup champion, and how despite the accolades, he has remained humble and understated, viewing the experience as a valuable asset in his career. He made special mention of the team's growth and evolution during the Euros and the important role of head coach De La Fuente in shaping the team spirit and tactical system.
Regarding his role in the national team, Subbimendi said that it was an honor to play with so many world-class midfielders, from which he learned many valuable lessons. He emphasized that he is committed to contributing to the team's success, both as a member of the team and as an individual.
Looking ahead, Subbimendi is confident about both Real Sociedad and the Spanish national team. He believes that as long as the team stays united and works hard, they will be able to achieve better results in the coming matches. At the same time, he also expressed his blasé attitude towards the transfer rumors, saying that his priority is to focus on the game and the team's success.
