“Sanse is the last step in all the work done at Zubieta,” says Alonso. “A product reaches me having learned very good concepts. And this is the last very important step to prepare them to be professionals. We want them to breathe what professional football is like, the competition, the training sessions, the habits you need to make it. It is like a production line and we are putting them in the box to get them ready for the first team, and we have to get it right.”

The evidence suggests that Alonso and everyone else working at Zubieta have indeed been getting this right. Very right. Real Sociedad’s first team are top of La Liga, Alonso’s Sanse are the only youth team playing in the adult Segunda Division. La Real C were also promoted last season, while Real Sociedad Femenino sit second behind Barcelona’s all-conquering women’s team.

All this progress is based firmly on a youth development system that is currently the most productive in Spain. Already in 2021-22, 18 players who have come through their Zubieta system have featured in the first team. This season La Real have had more home-grown debutants (four) than any other Primera Division club, and they also have the lowest average age across their squad.
