Eibar turn down Ponferradina for Adu Ares
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

An offer of $8.9M for Isi Palazón
Eibar have gone to Rayo Vallecano with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Door shut on Kévin Denkey
Eibar asked and FC Cincinnati said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Eibar make their move for Pepe Sánchez
$2.4M on the table at Albacete. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Francisco Ramirez will not be coming to Eibar
Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Veracruz is saying, and nobody at Eibar is enjoying the guessing.

A falling-out at Eibar
Javi Martínez and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Unai Elgezabal falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The formation has left Matías Contrera behind
Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Eibar will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.
Boardroom17 Aug 2026
No investment in the facilities at Eibar
Nothing about this will be in a press release. A plan went upstairs, came back rejected, and the version of the club that would have existed in three years' time just quietly stopped being possible.
