Fernando Hierro was attracted by Athletic’s philosophy

Date:

“I am happy and happy to return to football because it is part of my life. We want after the pandemic and, although we have few projects, it touches the sensitive side. Chivas is like Athletic Club de Bilbao, it is a team only for those born in Mexico”.

This is how Fernando Hierro presented himself in his participation in the ‘Special Qatar 2022’ forum framed at the EFE Sport Business Days. The man from Malaga has been the sports director of Chivas de Guadalajara for a few days, a Mexican club that Athletic will face in San Mamés on December 11 as a prelude to the celebrations of the 125th anniversary of the creation of the Bilbao institution.

“When they called me what I was happy about was the project because they do a lot in the lower categories and that’s what I did in the Spanish federation. This club has 40 million followers, 35 in Mexico, and has a sustainable project and great fans behind it. I hope so much. They were one of those projects that when the president, a 35-year-old man, explained to me, I said I have to try it. We played two championships, Apertura and Clausura, everything was very fast, and I think it’s a nice challenge because of the way we compete”.
