Iker Muniain Leaves Athletic Bilbao

After 15 Seasons and 557 Games, Club Captain Departs

A Legend Says Goodbye

Iker Muniain, the legendary captain of Athletic Bilbao, has announced his departure from the club after 15 seasons and 557 games. Muniain is the club's second-highest appearance maker, and his departure marks the end of an era for the Basque side.

Muniain joined Athletic Bilbao's youth academy at the age of nine, and he made his first-team debut at the age of 16. He quickly became a regular in the side, and he was appointed captain in 2018. During his time at Athletic Bilbao, Muniain won one Copa del Rey title and one Spanish Super Cup title.

Muniain's departure is a major loss for Athletic Bilbao, but it is also a testament to his longevity and consistency. He has been a key player for the club for over a decade, and he has helped them achieve some of their greatest successes.

Muniain is now 31 years old, and he is still one of the best wingers in La Liga. He is expected to be in high demand this summer, and he could join a number of top clubs around Europe.

Wherever Muniain ends up, he will always be remembered as a legend at Athletic Bilbao. He is one of the club's greatest ever players, and his departure will be a huge loss.
