Impact Oyarzabal remains firmly established in the starting XI regardless of whether he is deployed as a center-forward or on the wing. He has yet to score in La Liga this season but has supplied two assists while creating 10 chances and attempting 11 shots across seven appearances.

Tallies two assists Oyarzabal assisted twice to go with four shots (two on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Oyarzabal remains Real Sociedad's focal point, and he added four shots to go along with his two assists. He should continue being the team's primary threat against Celta Vigo, and it's a good matchup for Oyarzabal.

Impact Oyarzabal scored five goals for Spain at the 2026 FIFA World Cup and is coming off a 15-goal season in the 2025/26 Liga campaign, but he won't be ready to start in this matchup purely due to a lack of match fitness. That means Orri Oskarsson will lead the line against Betis.

Back in Sociedad's training ground Oyarzabal is back in Real Sociedad's training ground for the new season, according to the club.

Impact Oyarzabal scored 15 goals in 34 league appearances last season, and capped that campaign with a starring role for Spain at the World Cup, scoring five goals as the team won the tournament on July 19. With less than two weeks before the LaLiga opener against Real Betis on August 21, his return to training gives him a narrow window to build fitness, though when healthy he remains an undisputed starter and the captain for Real Sociedad.

AUGUST 10 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to join training soon Oyarzabal is expected to return to Real Sociedad training sessions on Aug. 10, according to Imanol Troyano of Diario Vasco.

Impact Oyarzabal played a key role for Spain in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, scoring five goals as La Roja won the tournament on July 19. The star forward will have less than two weeks to get into shape before the opener against Real Betis on Aug. 21, but when fit, he should be a regular starter for the Donostiarra side. Oyarzabal scored 15 goals in 34 league appearances in 2025/26.

Quiet outing in World Cup finale Oyarzabal registered one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Argentina.

Impact Oyarzabal found few opportunities this time and failed to capitalize while most of his touches came from outside the box, as was the trend throughout the final rounds of the World Cup. Still, the forward started all eight games in a No. 9 role and delivered strong performances that allowed him to lead Spain with five goals throughout the international event. Other than that, he provided an assist while averaging 2.9 shots and 0.8 chances created per game. He'll eventually report back to Real Sociedad, where he's an essential member of the squad as their top attacking threat.

Converts penalty in semi-finals win Oyarzabal scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Tuesday's 2-0 victory versus France.

Impact Oyarzabal led the front line with a fine effort which included a perfectly taken spot kick in the 22nd minute against France. The forward performed below his average of 3.1 shots per game, though such situation was expected against one of the strongest possible opponents. His five goals in seven matches rank first among Spanish players and sixth in the competition, with his last chance to increase that count coming Sunday in the tournament final.

Limited to one shot in win Oyarzabal had one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Friday's 2-1 victory versus Belgium.

Impact Oyarzabal was limited to one shot on target before departing the contest in the 79th minute. The Real Sociedad striker remains the top scorer for Spain with four goals, and he's also averaging 3.3 shots per contest.
