Sancet’s extension at Athletic: how it was announced, how long he will stay and how many years he will have in the new contract
A few seconds after the news was spread by the footballer himself, an official statement from the club appeared on social networks to expand the information:
“Athletic Club and Oihan Sancet have signed an agreement to extend the player’s relationship for eight seasons, until 2032. At the age of 22, the Navarrese is one of the footballers with the greatest presence and projection in the entity, as the same entity has shown through campaigning by establishing himself as the team’s top scorer with eight goals, acting from the playmaker.
Sancet has taken a step forward when it comes to signing a long-term contract. With today’s game against Getafe, the Under-21 international has already played 107 games as a lion and scored 17 goals. His immense devotion to Lezama began eight years ago when he arrived at Athletic Club as a cadet. He took advanced steps in the different categories until his debut on August 16, 2019 under the guidance of Gaizka Garitano, in the victory against FC Barcelona with the unforgettable goal from the Chilean kick of Aritz Aduriz.
The footballer signed in San Mamés with the president, Jon Uriarte, and the director of football, Mikel González. As a new initiative, it was Sancet himself who, at the end of today’s game against Getafe CF, conveyed to the fans his long-awaited renewal of the pitch”.
