Ernesto Valverde and his entire staff participated on Monday in the farewell of Iker Muniain held in San Mamés before more than 20,000 people. “A club like Athletic has to distinguish itself by knowing how to send off its players well. In the time I’ve been here they’ve said goodbye Iraola, Gurpegi, Iraizoz.., last year Balenciaganow they became Raoul, Iker… It confirms the connection between the fans and the players. It is important that the players who have been there for years and have given everything have a farewell. That always seemed important to me. Many times it is very difficult to square things. These are situations that are not easy. I don’t turn it and most people don’t. If everything fits, it’s good,” said the coach.
These farewells accompanied the celebrations for the Cup title also sent a message about it. “A lot of goodbyes with three games ahead… Since we won the Cup, the party, the farewells… Then the coach has to say that we have to win the game. Celta is waiting for us with a knife between her teeth because it’s all at stake,” he admitted.
