XIII Corazón de León Trophy

October 31, Aymeric Laporte will pick up the ”Corazón de León Trophy” (Heart of a Lion), that the Athletic Club of Zalla Supporters’ Club presents every year to distinguish those players from the Rojiblancos’ premier team who identify most with the values that Athletic represents. The award ceremony will begin at 18:00 at the Fan Club’s headquarters.

This way, Aymeric Laporte adds his name to the history of a trophy that in previous years has been awarded to players such as Julen Guerrero, Carlos Gurpegi, Joseba Etxeberria, Ismael Urzaiz, Andoni Iraola, Iker Muniain, Aritz Aduriz, Ander Iturraspe or Gorka Iraizoz, the winner of the last edition. Furthermore, in the 2008-2009 season it was a tie between Fernando Llorente and Armando Ribeiro, so the organization decided to award both players.

As usual, the act will open with the ceremonial Aurresku of Honour that will precede the delivery of the trophy and a small colloquy with the footballer and the members of the Athletic institutional representation that will be in attendance in Zalla.
