Real Sociedad reshuffles its women’s bench with multiple changes
After analyst Ángel Martín leaves, Fernando Torres moves to tactical analysis and Aitor Resende is promoted to the first team.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Real Sociedad has made further adjustments to the coaching setup of its women’s first team. The instability isn’t new: the season got off to a shaky start after Arturo Ruiz left for Brighton, and since then the club has kept reshaping roles within its technical staff.
Chain reaction in the lineup
The latest change was triggered by the departure of analyst Ángel Martín, leading to a domino effect without bringing in someone from outside. In the new structure, Fernando Torres steps away from the second-coach role to take charge of tactical analysis.
From there, the promotion comes from Aitor Resende, who is elevated from the club’s B side to take over as second coach. To cover the vacancy left in the reserve team, the final piece of the puzzle is Iosu Diaz, who takes charge of the second team.
Continuity, but not stability
The club’s approach—promoting internally—aims to preserve continuity in its methodology and strengthen its women’s section project. Still, as Mundo Deportivo points out, the frequency of these shifts highlights a turbulent period, with the coaching staff continuing to reinvent itself mid-season.
