Golubin: Zakharyan Remains Positive About Real Sociedad Move Despite Setbacks

Gennady Golubin, the agent representing Real Sociedad midfielder Arsen Zakharyan, has provided an update on his client’s health condition and mindset regarding his recent transfer.

“Arsen experienced some minor inflammation in the area of his previous injury due to increased workload. We’re hopeful that he’ll rejoin full team training within a few days,” Golubin stated in a recent interview.

The agent emphasized that despite facing injury challenges, the 21-year-old midfielder does not view his move to Spain as a mistake. This positive outlook comes even as Zakharyan was ruled out of Real Sociedad’s upcoming Europa League match against Lazio due to an ankle issue.

Zakharyan joined Real Sociedad in the summer of 2023. Since his arrival, he has participated in 40 matches across all competitions, scoring one goal and providing two assists. While his initial period with the club has been marked by some setbacks, both the player and his representative maintain an optimistic view of his future with the Spanish side.

As Zakharyan continues to adapt to the demands of La Liga and European football, fans and observers alike will be keen to see how the young Russian talent develops and contributes to Real Sociedad’s campaigns in the coming months.
