SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain — Spanish club Real Sociedad has reached an agreement to sign Mexico defender Diego Reyes on loan from FC Porto.

Sociedad says Reyes will arrive on a one-season loan, which doesn’t include an option to buy the player.

It adds the deal depends on the 22-year-old Reyes passing a medical exam after he finishes playing in the Gold Cup with Mexico.

Sociedad also reached a loan deal for forward Armindo "Bruma" Tue Na Bangna from Turkish club Galatasaray. This deal does include a purchase clause.
