A leading light and a household name with over 450 appearances to his name, Prieto has spent his whole career at Real Sociedad. An attacking midfielder possessing the technical ability and a footballing brain which few can lay claim to. He's a midfielder who is able to operate in both wide areas and centrally. Xabi also holds the status of being the best penalty taker in the top flight. He displays the dedication, elegance and pride typical of a San Sebastián local and acts as a role model for everyone in all respects. No words can do the skipper's influence justice.
