Athletic has elected a new president while the first team was on vacation. The rojiblancos began their summer break as soon as they played the last league game in Seville on May 22 and the elections were held on June 24.

Iker Muniain assured yesterday that he has followed the pre-campaign and the campaign that has led to the appointment of Jon Uriarte as the 33rd president in the history of the Ibaigane club. “I have been very attentive. The feeling that it leaves me is that it has been very hard and that there has been a lot of competition between all the candidates. The good thing is that the partners have different opinions, that debates are generated so that each one exposes their ideas. I think that with all this the club wins“said the captain yesterday morning in the Lezama press room.
