Mikel Oyarzabal

Mikel Oyarzabal is a clinical Spain forward and the captain of Real Sociedad, the club he has served for his entire senior career. A composed finisher who can lead the line or drift in from the left, he wrote his name into Spanish football history by scoring the winning goal in the Euro 2024 final against England. Loyal, two-footed and ice-cold in the big moments, he is a manager's dream.

He showed that big-game pedigree again at the 2026 World Cup with a quick-fire brace in Spain's 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia.
