Gaizka Garitano will be Eibar's next coach

Gaizka Garitano will be Eibar's coach. In the next few hours, the Basque coach will become the head of the armory entity in the Second Division.

Negotiations have come to fruition for Garitano to return to Eibar to take over from José Luis Mendilibar. The deriotarra made history by achieving two consecutive promotions from Second B to First eight years ago and now he will try to raise the gunsmith team to the highest category.

Garitano will go to work immediately to shape the squad together with César Palacios, the new sports director.
