Antoine Griezmann and Inigo Martinez are two notable names to have graduated from the Real Sociedad academy and Mikel Oyarzabal could be next in line to rise to fame.

The 21-year-old winger has already played 110 games for Sociedad’s first team and scored 24 goals in the process.

Oyarzabal is a quick and slick winger with an eye for goal and impressive finishing ability. The drastic improvement in his goal tally last season is a testament to his improving finishing ability.

The Spaniard scored 14 goals in 43 games across all competitions last season of which 12 were scored in 35 league games. In addition to his goals, he also provided six assists.

Oyarzabal also made his senior debut for Spain aged 19 which shows how highly rated he is in his country.
