Hamari Traore - Playing in AFCONTraore will miss Real Sociedad's next two matches since he's at the AFCON with Mali.
ImpactTraore was called up to defend Mali in the AFCON, and his return date will be determined by how far the team advances in the tournament. Alvaro Odriozola (hip) is expected to see most of the playing time at right-back while Traore is out.

Carlos Fernandez - Dealing with knee issueFernandez was not an option for Wednesday's Cope del Rey match against Osasuna due to discomfort in his knee and is now doubtful for Saturday's match against Celta Vigo due to the...
ImpactFernandez may have played his final minutes for Real Sociedad on Dec. 21 against Cadiz, as he is now facing complications in his knee while also possibly being on his way out due to the signing of Sheraldo Becker. He most likely will be held out against Celta due to the issue, especially seeing he hasn't had much of an impact on the squad this season, only appearing in 14 matches across all competitions, mainly serving as a substitute off of the bench, with a minuscule three appearances across the club's past nine games. The forward also seems to possibly be on his way out from the club, as the club just brought in the likes of Sheraldo Becker as a new striker, with even less play time being available for Fernandez moving forward. With only two weeks until the end of the transfer window, it will be interesting to see what happens with the striker within that span.

Alvaro Odriozola - Picks up injuryOdriozola missed the club's latest match in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday against Osasuna due to a muscle injury in his hip and is now in question for Saturday's match against Celt...
ImpactOdriozola may be heading for some time on the sidelines, already having missed the club's most recent match while being doubtful for Saturday's match after picking up an undisclosed injury. It isn't the biggest loss for the club, as the defender has only appeared in six games this season while starting in three of those contests, only notching three appearances in the club's past eight contests. He will hope for the injury to only be minor, as the club will hope to keep as many reinforcements as possible with the busy part of the season underway due to Cup and league matches taking place.

Sheraldo Becker - Joining La Liga sideBecker completed a move to Real Sociedad from Union Berlin on Thursday.
ImpactBecker made 16 appearances across Bundesliga and Champions League competition for Union Berlin this season in which he registered two goals on 27 shots (11 on target), one assist, 78 crosses (14 accurate) and 19 chances created. With the move to Real Sociedad, the forward should continue to feature prominently in the starting XI and offer decent offensive upside.

Umar Sadiq - Back in actionSadiq came off the bench for the closing stages of Wednesday's 2-0 win over Osasuna.
ImpactSadiq was recalled from the Nigerian national team with a knee injury that was expected to sideline him for more than a month. Instead of missing a month he missed about three days before returning Wednesday. It's a very uncertain situation but the only thing that all parties agree on is that Sadiq is back with Sociedad, and is fit once more.

Andre Silva - Starts in cup winSilva got the start and shot twice during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Osasuna.
ImpactSilva was back in the starting XI for Wednesday's win and was decent, even if he was held off the scoresheet. A calf injury had kept him sidelined for multiple months and small issues have seen him in and out of the starting XI of late. Still this 73 minute run was his longest of the seasn and could be a sign of a more consistent role that is soon to follow.
