Héctor Fort joins Real and aims to make his debut

Héctor Fort has started his first day as a Real Sociedad player. As reported by MARCA, the club’s second new signing has already met his team-mates at Zubieta and trained for the first time this morning under Pellegrino Matarazzo, with the goal of integrating quickly for the 2026-27 season.

According to the paper, Fort has the next four days to get up to speed. However, tomorrow the Real squad will have a rest day, which will shape how fast he can be ready.

The Real plan points to an immediate chance. MARCA suggests his debut could come this coming Thursday at Anoeta, against Celta Vigo, in the match for the sixth LaLiga round that has been brought forward due to the club’s Europa League commitments. The game is scheduled to start at 21:00.

A debut within reach

For now, the headline is straightforward: Fort is already part of the team’s day-to-day after being announced yesterday as Real’s second signing of this campaign. From here, it will come down to how he performs in the remaining sessions before kick-off and to the coach’s selection for the trip to league action.

With the calendar squeezed by Europe, Real’s priority is to keep momentum in the league—and if Fort is ready, he has a realistic path to make his first appearance at Anoeta.
