Real Sociedad are moving for Manchester United veteran Juan Mata.
Off contract in June, Mata has battled for minutes this season and could seek a move away in January.
AS says Mata is already setting out plans to leave United.
And agents for the veteran have already offered him to Real Sociedad - and the response has been positive.
La Real would prefer taking Mata as a free agent and would rely on the veteran securing a release from his United contract in the coming weeks.
