Mikel Aranburu will play his last game for Real Sociedad on Saturday after 16 years and almost 500 appearances with the club and long-time teammate Xabi Prieto says it is hard to imagine life without him. He told Marca: "Obviously it is a great shame that a player and a teammate like Mikel is leaving football. He has been a great, someone out of the ordinary, and an example to everyone who has arrived here after him. I still find it strange to imagine a dressing room without him. We are going to miss him a lot."
