Athletic has now officially made the renewal of Óscar de Marcos for another season. Iker Muniain, captain of the Bilbao team, used social networks to greet his teammate in a special way for the extension of their bond. The origin of this unique initiative takes place on April 26, 2012 as the match date.
“Do you remember Óscar de Marcos where we are now ten years ago? Everyone celebrated together with our fans the pass to the UEL final … It’s a pleasure to continue fighting with you to live a more magical night. Zorionak for your renewal “, Muniain picked up the message to his partner.
On April 26, a decade ago, Athletic beat Sporting de Portugal 3-1 at the old Cathedral and qualified for the Europa League final. De Marcos, curiously, missed that fight due to the accumulation of cards. Marcelo Bielsa’s team’s spectacular tour of the continental tournament ended in a 3-0 defeat against Atlético de Madrid in the decisive match played in Bucharest.
