The announcement, made late Monday evening, brings an end to a 12-year association with the first team for the 32-year-old defender.\n\nIn a statement, the Basque side praised Elustondo's loyalty and professionalism, calling his career at the club \"exemplary.\" The Beasain native currently holds one of the captaincy roles in the squad, underscoring his leadership within the dressing room.\n\nElustondo joined Real Sociedad's youth academy at a young age and progressed through the ranks to make his senior debut. Over the past twelve seasons, he has been a consistent presence in defense, making over 300 appearances for the first team. His commitment to the club has made him a fan favorite at the Reale Arena.\n\nThe decision not to renew his contract marks the end of an era for the txuri-urdin faithful. Elustondo is expected to play his final home matches in the remaining weeks of the season, with the club planning a tribute to honor his contributions.\n\nReal Sociedad's statement highlighted Elustondo's dedication both on and off the pitch, noting that he has been a role model for younger players. His departure leaves a void in the squad, especially in terms of experience and leadership.\n\nWhile no specific reason for the non-renewal was given, it is believed that the club is looking to refresh the squad and reduce the average age of the defense. Elustondo, who will turn 33 later this year, may seek a new challenge elsewhere or consider retirement.\n\nFans have reacted with mixed emotions, celebrating his legacy but lamenting the end of a long-standing relationship. Social media has been filled with messages of gratitude for his service.\n\nAs the season winds down, all eyes will be on Elustondo's final appearances in the Real Sociedad shirt. His next destination remains unknown, but his place in club history is secure.\n\nBased on reporting from Fútbol.","news","Real Sociedad officially announces that captain Aritz Elustondo will depart at season's end after 12 years, ending an exemplary tenure with the Basque club.","327188622493093889","0","2026-05-05T18:05:55Z","aritz-elustondo-to-leave-real-sociedad-after-12-seasons-club-confirms","Fútbol","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.mundodeportivo.com\u002Ffutbol\u002Freal-sociedad\u002F20260505\u002F1004179391\u002Foficial-real-sociedad-no-renovara-leyenda-marcha-12-temporadas.html","326257565702819840","Real Sociedad",[51,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64],"326257539962376192","326222712592666624","326257550938869760","326257610179219456","326257610309242880","326257640424345600","326257650473897984","326222707169431552","326257545754710016","326257546392244224","326257554411753472",[52,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76],"Como","Congo DR","Lask Linz","U.N.A.M. - Pumas","Club Queretaro","Constància","Universidad de Concepcion","Anderlecht","Newcastle","Nottingham Forest","Newcastle Jets","Aritz Elustondo to Leave Real Sociedad After 12 Seasons, Club Confirms",[79,106,130,142],{"awayTeamId":55,"awayTeamName":67,"body":-1,"category":43,"excerpt":80,"homeTeamId":81,"homeTeamName":82,"id":83,"leagueId":84,"leagueName":85,"matchId":86,"matchName":87,"publishedAt":88,"slug":89,"sourceName":49,"sourceURL":90,"teamId":51,"teamName":52,"teamIds":91,"teamNames":98,"title":105},"Real Sociedad have seen their Champions League ambitions evaporate following a disastrous stretch of results, leaving them stuck in ninth place with a ten-point gap to the top five and only twelve points left to play for.","326222712143876096","Portugal","327184024302784513","326135654326996992","UEFA U19 Championship - Women","327115058687512576","Portugal vs Congo DR","2026-05-06T02:25:04Z","real-sociedad-s-champions-league-hopes-shattered-after-a-devastating-run-of-form","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.mundodeportivo.com\u002Ffutbol\u002Freal-sociedad\u002F20260505\u002F1004179128\u002Freal-sociedad-olvida-champions-acerca-descenso-asi-queda-clasificacion.html",[51,81,55,54,92,93,94,95,96,61,97],"326257537596788736","326257537865224192","326257556060114944","326257563307872256","326257565602156544","326255037950988288",[52,82,67,66,99,100,101,102,103,73,104],"FC Porto","Estoril","Estudiantes L.P.","Fortuna Sittard","Real Betis","Crystal Palace","Real Sociedad’s Champions League Hopes Shattered After a Devastating Run of Form",{"awayTeamId":51,"awayTeamName":52,"body":-1,"category":43,"excerpt":107,"homeTeamId":108,"homeTeamName":109,"id":110,"leagueId":111,"leagueName":112,"matchId":113,"matchName":114,"publishedAt":88,"slug":115,"sourceName":49,"sourceURL":116,"teamId":108,"teamName":109,"teamIds":117,"teamNames":123,"title":129},"Chidera Ejuke delivered a game-changing performance for Sevilla, emerging from obscurity to terrorize Real Sociedad's defense on the left wing and forcing a key substitution in a vital LaLiga victory.","326257565400829952","Sevilla","327183694919897089","326135624820068352","La Liga","326324465602400256","Sevilla vs Real Sociedad","from-ostracism-to-hero-how-chidera-ejuke-rescued-sevilla-against-real-sociedad","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.mundodeportivo.com\u002Ffutbol\u002Fsevilla\u002F20260505\u002F1004179163\u002Fejuke-emerge-momento-clave.html",[108,51,118,119,120,56,121,57,61,122,63],"326257544051822592","326255042430504960","326257539807186944","326257559755296768","326222713142120448",[109,52,124,125,126,68,127,69,73,128,75],"Internacional","Servette FC","Cremonese","OFI","Canada","From Ostracism to Hero: How Chidera Ejuke Rescued Sevilla Against Real Sociedad",{"awayTeamId":51,"awayTeamName":52,"body":-1,"category":43,"excerpt":131,"homeTeamId":108,"homeTeamName":109,"id":132,"leagueId":111,"leagueName":112,"matchId":113,"matchName":114,"publishedAt":88,"slug":133,"sourceName":49,"sourceURL":134,"teamId":51,"teamName":52,"teamIds":135,"teamNames":138,"title":141},"Takefusa Kubo was shockingly benched at Sevilla by Matarazzo, despite playing 90 minutes vs Rayo and with Guedes out.
