Real Sociedad continued its strong performances during January under the leadership of its new coach Pellegrino Matarazzo, as the Basque team achieved remarkable results, making it one of the most prominent teams in La Liga in recent times, which culminated in his selection as the coach of the month in the Spanish league.

During January, Sociedad recorded important victories over both Getafe and Celta Vigo, in addition to a notable win against Barcelona, while drawing in a tough match against Atletico Madrid, earning the team a significant number of points in the La Liga race.

This positive series of results enabled Real Sociedad to climb up the standings to occupy the eighth position, boosting its chances of competing for European spots after a shaky start to the season.

This transformation is led by the American coach of Italian descent, Matarazzo, who took over the coaching of Real Sociedad at the beginning of January and succeeded in a short time in imposing his style and instilling a new spirit within the team, which directly reflected on the results and performance on the field.
