Felix Sarriugarte: ‘I am pleased because I have the best players’

To have a competitive team and primarily to continue nourishing the first division team with players are the objectives for the present season for Bilbao Athletic in opinion of its new coach, Felix Sarriugarte. He has spoken about the work group that has been assigned to him to direct: ‘I am pleased, because I have the best players and have the best base to begin with’.

In the same sense he has shown consideration to set himself tangible objectives also in the sports aspect: ‘the beginning of the League is difficult, but once the season advances Bilbao Athletic will have to set its objectives. Our squad is attractive and difficult and we can say that it has a bit of everything: There will be more derbies, that is to say, more exciting matches; there are more subsidiaries and that will give us the option to confront different reserve teams and, besides, there are some renowned teams’.

Finally, he has indicated that the experience lived by his players in the Intertoto Cup has been enriching and that they have given their all in the mentioned competition. Now it’s about fitting in those that have had two weeks of training and those that are starting from scratch.
