Iker Muñoz puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Osasuna, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad8 May 2028

A one-man rearguard from Sergio Herrera

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Rubén García runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market8 May 2028

Zinho Vanheusden is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Osasuna is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad8 May 2028

Ante Budimir signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Ante Budimir and Osasuna agree another 2 years.

Match6 May 2028

No end in sight to Osasuna's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Osasuna has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad27 Dec 2027

Sergio Herrera keeps Osasuna in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 11 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match22 Dec 2027

Osasuna bow out of the cup

Athletic Bilbao go through and Osasuna go home, 1‑4 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Nobody could get near Kike Barja

Successful dribbles: 25. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

A defender's afternoon for Alejandro Catena

Defensive actions: 25. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

A defender's afternoon for Iker Muñoz

Defensive actions: 25. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Squad27 Dec 2027

Defences have started doubling up on Rubén García

7 goals and a season average of 7.70 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

Squad27 Dec 2027

Tempers go at Osasuna

Rubén García was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings27 Dec 2027

Nothing got past Jon Moncayola

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 23 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.
