From the box of the lions they hope to make an interesting incorporation
The athletic club he visualizes options in the market, where due to his philosophy he must look at his rival, Real Sociedad, where there are players of great interest such as Mikel Oyarzabal. Yes indeed, the addition of the end It is an effort that would not end with success, so they have turned their eyes to another cash in Saint Sebastian.
Let us remember that the last great incorporation made by the lions was that of Inigo Martinez who could get out of the picture txuri-urdin. Now with the elections closer and closer, the candidates are beginning to show their cards and one of them is to hire top-level players. That is where an interesting name has appeared.
Athletic wants to sign Oyarzabal’s replacement
And it is that given the impossibility of having Oyarzabal in San Mamés, from Athletic they point to his replacement. We are talking about Jon Karrikaburu, the Real Sociedad B footballer continues to show many conditions and this has not gone unnoticed. So much so, that FC Barcelona and Xavi want to have him in their ranks.
At 19 years old, this striker has confirmed his good form in LaLiga SmartBank. In the 28 games that he has played in the silver category of Spain, he has scored 10 goals, being a record no less. His age is another factor that he plays in his favor and that is why he is highly sought after by big squads.
Karrikaburu is the one targeted by the rojiblanco team to reinforce their offense
In addition, it sounds to be the substitute for Oyarzabal in case he leaves for a new destination, although before that, Athletic wants to make him an offer. Of course, those from San Mamés will have to refer to their termination clause, since the striker has a contract until 2026. This would not be a problem, since the lions want to make a significant investment in the summer.
We will have to finally wait for what may happen in the next market. For now, Athletic’s panorama is focused on their elections, which will define the path to be taken by the lions. The team wants to have important players and fight at the top of the table and at Real Sociedad there would be an effective player like ‘Karrikagol’ whom they want to secure.
