Original Adidas soccer shirt Real Sociedad 2014/15

In the summer of 2014, Antoine Griezmann was sold to Atlético Madrid while top player Carlos Vela missed the early stages of the season due to fitness problems. Most performances during the preseason were poor. Real Sociedad faced the Scottish side of Aberdeen in the UEFA Europa League Third qualifying round. Real Socieded advanced a total of 5-2, although the second leg, far from home, was far from convincing. In the next round, Real Sociedad was emphatically defeated by the Russian club Krasnodar. Moreover, Gerónimo Rulli was seriously injured during his debut.

The first months of the League season followed the same pattern. At the beginning of November, Real Sociedad became second from the bottom, which prompted the club to release Jagoba Arrasate from its duties after only the tenth match day. Shortly after his resignation, former Everton and Manchester United manager David Moyes was announced as the replacement. De Schot led the club out of the lower zone of the table and a strong series of results in February and March dispelled fear of relegation. In April the results deteriorated again and the club finally finished the season in 12th place.

In the Copa del Rey, Real Sociedad eliminated Real Oviedo, but failed against their next opponents, Villarreal.
