The striker becomes the active footballer with the most consecutive matches played in LaLiga (122)
Iñaki Williams has made history by surpassing a record available only to the most regular footballers. The 9 red-white is already the active footballer with the most consecutive matches played in LaLiga: 122 matches, all from the 20th of abirl in 2016. A figure that represents his constancy and regularity and also his excellent physical condition, without injuries in such a long period of time.
With these guarismos, Williams has surpassed the record held by goalkeeper Diego López, currently at RCD Espanyol, when he joined the ranks of Villarreal CF (between 2008 and 2011):
The red-white quarry, at the age of 25, has become one of the icons of the Athletic Club in its own right. “I want to be a reference for young people,” he said after translating his commitment to the entity until 2028. Last season was the best in terms of goalscoring records (13) and last Friday got its first goal at LaLiga Santander 2019-20 paving the way for his team in the derby against Real Sociedad.
His next challenge in this ranking will be to reach our former goalkeeper Carmelo Cedrún, the only zurigorri that surpasses him in this classification, who went so far as to play 132 consecutive matches between 1952 and 1957.
