Renowned Spanish football pundit Guillem Balague has weighed in on David Moyes's appointment as manager of Real Sociedad.
The Sky Sports correspondent said that he is "excited" about the move, and backed the Scot to improve the struggling La Liga outfit.
"I'm so excited about this. He's one of the top British managers and he's actually going to go to La Liga, to a team he can improve," he told Sky Sports News.
"The interesting thing is Real Sociedad have not accepted no for an answer. They insisted they wanted him to be the man and received very good reports. It's not a decision that's been taken lightly at all."
He added: "It's a club with some Britishness about it - the first foreigner to play for them was John Aldridge and Chris Coleman was also there. The area is also 'British' in the eyes of the rest of Spain - it rains a lot."
Sociedad, who are third from bottom in La Liga, will unveil Moyes at a press conference on Tuesday.
