This season, I’m looking for intrastories related to the day current players made their debut playing for Athletic. All of them, even now, have had time among the elite like lions, some more, some less. I think there may be attention-grabbing names related to each star’s premiere. The established order is the numbers.
Number 7 this season belongs to Álex Berenguer. The forward, according to the club’s official website, made his debut with the red and white team on October 4, 2020. Sunday. two o’clock in the afternoon Red and white. Fifth day of the 2020/2021 League.
The Navarrese made their debut in Mendizorrotza against Alavés. Gaizka Garitano, Almería’s new coach, gave him an alternative. Dorsal 12, just like Vesga’s last week, by the way. alternative. He came on the field in the 78th minute with Villalibre, who at that time certainly could not have imagined that he would become a hero of the promotion of the Vitorian team, replacing Iñaki Williams and Unai López.
Another debut with a loss
Another debut with a loss: 1-0. The local goal was scored by Rodrigo Ely. The Brazilian now plays for Garitano’s Almería. What things. That was an Alavés team directed by Pablo Machín and in which, among others, Lucas and Joselu, now at Real Madrid, were active. There is a Biscayan on the Alava bench, Borja Sainz. The one from Leioa now plays for Norwich City. It was a duel in which Rubén Duarte ended up getting fired.
It has not been that long since Berenguer’s debut, but that day five lions played in the starting team who are no longer in the team: Capa (Levante), Nuñez (Celta), Iñigo Martínez (Barcelona), Unai López (Rayo Vallecano ) and Iñigo Córdoba (Fortuna Sittard).
Navarrese played 137 official matches for Athletic, scoring 20 goals. What I remember most about its beauty and importance is the one he scored against Real Madrid in the quarterfinals of the Cup at San Mamés. A left-footed shot with two minutes remaining beat Courtois, allowing Marcelino’s men to advance to the semifinals.
Other news of the day
In the rest of the sport, on the day of Berenguer’s debut at Athletic, news in the national circulation of Mundo Deportivo that a Barcelona-Seville match was being played. Great game they named after pictures of Ansu Fati and Rakitic. It is also news that, in tennis, Rafa Nadal is looking for the Roland Garros quarterfinals against Korda. In cycling, Ganna became the first pink ‘maglia’ of the Giro in 2020. In addition, it was highlighted that Jasikevicius, then Barcelona’s basketball coach, was asymptomatic positive for the coronavirus.
The other day they called me from Pamplona and asked me about the situation in Berenguer. Osasuna will be attentive to the future of a player whose contract expires in 2024. He has already stated in these pages that he wants to continue here. It is true that he has lost popularity, but it is also true that he is a player who still has things to say to Athletic. I don’t know if the future is linked to the player who currently occupies the left wing and also ends his contract in June next year… It won’t be a matter of another Thursday.
