Yesterday, the three pre-candidates to preside over Athletic far exceeded the bar of 2,016 endorsements necessary to become official candidates for the elections on June 24. Ricardo Barkala he was the first to appear in Ibaigane. He did it at eleven in the morning accompanied by seven members of his team. The president of the Port of Bilbao did not want to advance in Ibaigane the exact number of signatures delivered, but late at night he confirmed that there were 4,450. An hour later he completed the procedure Iñaki Arechabaleta accompanied by a large number of collaborators. “A squad with loans and everything,” he said between jokes. The Deusto executive reached 3,304 signatures.

In the afternoon it was the turn of Jon Uriarte, the youngest candidate and the last to jump into the electoral arena. It was then that the surprise jumped. The Biscayan businessman, the least favorite a priori, gave 6,254 guarantees.

The three comfortably exceeded the 2016 bar necessary to fight with all of the law in the elections that will be held for the first time in San Mamés. Candidates will be announced on Thursday
