Barrenetxea didn't train Monday due to the knock he sustained in the loss to Real Betis on Friday, and he might not be fit enough to face Real Madrid on Wednesday, according to A. Lopez of El Diario Vasco.
Analysis:Not having Barrenetxea would be a huge blow for Real Sociedad, as they're already missing Goncalo Guedes (undisclosed) while neither Mikel Oyarzabal nor Takefusa Kubo are ready to play a full 90 yet. With Barrenetxea not expected to be available against Los Merengues, Jon Karrikaburu, Orri Oskarsson and Arsen Zakharyan are all options to see more minutes in the final third.
