"I was selfish": Martin Subimendi explained why he turned down a move to Liverpool
Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Subimendi admitted that "selfish" reasons led him to reject an offer from Liverpool last summer. Despite interest from Arne Slot's team, the 25-year-old player decided to stay at his hometown club, making a decision he believes will help him become a better player in the long term.
Quote: "I went on vacation, and it took me by surprise. It wasn’t what I had planned. It was an inconvenient time for me. But I weighed the pros and cons and concluded that the best option was to stay."
"I looked at my personal progress, who I am, and the club's project. I stayed because I knew this season would be important for me in the team, and I still had a few steps to take. It wasn’t that difficult of a decision. There were many reasons for my choice, but I was selfish and thought about what was best for me. And that was staying," said Martin Subimendi.
Reminder: This season, the Spanish midfielder has played in 21 matches for Real Sociedad, scoring 1 goal and providing 2 assists. Real Sociedad is currently in 7th place in the league after 17 rounds.
