Real Sociedad defender Nacho Monreal is ready to open new contract talks.
A knockdown €250,000 signing from Arsenal last year, Monreal is in his second season with La Real, with his contract to expire in June, 2021.
The defender has played a key role in helping La Real to the top of the LaLiga table.
And Mundo Deportivo says management are ready to offer a new 12-month extension to Monreal.
Monreal turns 34 in February and will be happy to enter talks about a new deal once La Real make their approach.
