Athletic Club de Bilbao wanted to renew Asier Córdoba, a left-handed winger born in 2000 and who had finished his contract this season, but Osasuna has gone ahead and committed to Iñigo's brother. Alavés also wanted his signing.
The rojillo club has seduced the player with a strong sports bet and a very solid project in the centenary year and where Braulio wants to hit the table in the northern market. The tendency of the sports director to bet on young and future players has attracted the youngest of the Córdoba, who hardly had any opportunities at Bilbao Athletic.
On the other hand, after the successful operation of Borja Sainz, who made his debut as a scorer with Alavés against Real Sociedad and who landed in Vitoria to be part of an important project, the Basque team intended to repeat with Asier for a position that was a priority beef up. But the Navarrese have been ahead.
