Andoni Gorosabel, close to Athletic

One of Luis García Plaza’s undisputed players at Deportivo Alaves will not continue to play in Vitoria next season. As confirmed by SER Vitoria, the Albiasul club have known for several weeks that Andoni Gorosabel has reached an agreement with Athletic Bilbao that he will wear the red and white colors next season and that he will not extend his relationship with the team for more than year. This is a market opportunity and the fast pace of Mikel Gonzalez, Athletic’s director of football, a team that turns 28 in August.

Gorosabel started 22 of Alaves’ 24 league matches. He was only a substitute against Osasuna, although he played the last 35 minutes, and missed the game against Barcelona due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Thus, after six seasons at Real Sociedad and a campaign at Mendizorros, Gorosabel will play for three major Basque football teams. will arrive free of charge after signing just one season contract with Mendizorroza.

The athlete now doubts what will happen to the future of Oscar De Marcos. He is their starting quarterback and his contract expires on June 30th. In addition to the Laguardia player, Ernesto Valverde has Inigo Lecue for this position. At Alaves, Gorozabel, who will leave at the end of the year, and Tenaglia, with a contract signed until 2027 with Deportivo Alaves, will finish the season. Journalist Kevin Fernandez reported this information to the SER office in Vitoria on Friday, February 16.

Some fans were upset by the move, suggesting that he was using Alaves to make a move between Real Sociedad and Athletic Club, but the truth is that the San Sebastian club made no effort to keep him and his contract expires in June. That’s why it’s free and you don’t need to explain it to anyone. Neither Real Madrid, nor Alaves, nor other participants. When he was contacted to continue his career in Vitoria, it turned out that his future had already been decided and that it would be somewhere else. This is football law. Sometimes it gives and sometimes it takes away.
