One-Club Award
One career, one club.
Origin
The One-Club Man and One-Club Women awards are presented to footballers who spent their entire professional career signed to a single team, and therefore demonstrated values which reflect Athletic Club’s own identity as a football club.
The winners always collect the trophy in front of the San Mamés faithful during half-time at an Athletic Club game. The recipient is accompanied to the centre-circle by Athletic legends José Ángel Iribar and Eli Ibarra as they receive the accolade.
