Despite a 2-1 loss to his former team Real Madrid, the creative midfielder is causing a stir in Spain with impressive displays for Real Sociedad in all five LaLiga matchdays so far, including against Granada CF in his team’s thrilling 5-3 victory. The Basque side went into this weekend high on confidence and still yet to lose a match, with Kubo being named MVP in all four matches.
Kubo made an impactful start against his former team, supplying teammate Ander Barrenetxea for the opening goal within the opening five minutes. Following this, just six minutes later, Kubo nearly added to his goal tally for the season, only for his fierce effort from outside the box to be ruled out for offside.
