Hugo Rincón’s future up in the air as Jesús Areso holds the key | OneFootball

Athletic maintains a firm stance with Hugo Rincón: despite the interest of numerous LaLiga clubs—such as Girona, Alavés, Rayo, Getafe or Mallorca—they do not contemplate his sale, according to AS, after his great year in Miranda del Ebro.

The formula that the red-and-white club is considering is a loan to Primera, with several suitors such as Rayo Vallecano or Girona after the full-back.

However, it is not ruled out that the player may have an opportunity at Athletic if by any chance the signing of Jesús Areso does not end up materializing.

If Areso is confirmed, Rincón would go on loan to continue his progression in Primera; otherwise, Valverde would consider keeping him to compete for the position. The next week will be decisive in defining his future.
