«Ander Capa askatu»: Yuri Berchiche joins the cry of support for the side

The sporting situation of Ander Capa, close to the end of his contract and with no signs that there are options to continue at Athletic, has once again been the subject of debate, first in San Mamés during the Osasuna match yesterday, and then on the networks social. Marcelino ushered in the right-back in the 87th minute, in what were his first minutes of the season on matchday 37 of the League, which caused the stands to react in favor of the footballer and shout "Capa, stay", especially from the Gazte Abono area when he was ready on the wing next to the bench.

The encouragement of the fans has led Capa to send a message of thanks through social networks, where he acknowledges that it is “impossible to express what I felt when jumping back onto the San Mamés pitch. Thank you all for the support and love received throughout the year. I remain with the reception you gave me, which I will always carry in my heart. His words, with a clear scent of farewell, have provoked more than 400 reactions among fans and his own teammates (Raúl García, Unai Nuñez), but above all he has highlighted Yuri Berchiche's message: "Ander Capa askatu" .

The one from Zarautz, who has shared numerous line-ups with the jarillero seasons ago, has surprised by endorsing the message of a sector of the Athletic fans that on the occasions in which the full-back has gone out to warm up on the side of La Catedral –never he came to jump onto the field this season until yesterday– he has shouted that of «Capa askatu». And it is the phrase that Yuri has rescued to respond to his partner's message on the networks and that fuels the controversy surrounding the situation that Capa has experienced this year, where he has not counted at all for Marcelino after the side did not arrive to an agreement to renew his relationship with Athletic.

It is not the first time that Yuri Berchiche has positioned himself on the networks around a thorny issue. It already happened in the fall of 2020, when he confirmed the interest of the rojiblanco players in the incorporation of Fernando Llorente in response to information that "Alkorta (sports director) and Llorente would have reached an agreement and the sports commission would have thrown the signing». The response from the Zarautz winger was as follows: "How right, we have done what we could."
