BILBAO – Jon Uriarte, President of Athletic Club de Bilbao, held a significant press conference this Tuesday. During his appearance, Uriarte addressed two highly current and sensitive topics: the recent complaints regarding harassment and threats he has received at his home, and the long-anticipated announcement from Ernesto Valverde concerning his departure as head coach at the end of the current season.

Despite these important revelations and the public nature of the event, the president did not provide any details or hints about Valverde's potential successor. The question of who will occupy the Athletic dugout in the future remains unanswered, leaving fans and media eager for an announcement.
