ANDhe Eibar announced this Thursday the renewal of Sergio Alvarez. The Asturian footballer ended his contract today and has extended it for two more seasons. In this way, Sergio will continue in the Barça team until 2024 and Gaizka Garitano the continuity of one of his trusted men is assured. The announcement has been celebrated by a large part of the gunsmith fans, who began to be pessimistic about the future of the ‘6’ due to the proximity of the date on which their link expired.
Without a doubt, the renewal of Sergio was one of the priorities of Cesar Palacios after the end of the season. Of all the players whose contract ended on June 30, the situation of the former Sporting was the one that aroused the most interest in the offices of Ipurua. Luckily for Eibar, the negotiations have come to fruition and the Spaniard will complete six seasons as a Barça player. He is at a suitable age and this campaign has seen his prominence on the pitch increase.
beggar did not know how to get all the performance it had, but Garitano Yes, this course has. The style of play of the coach from Rio de Janeiro has come in handy and Sergio has been a capital footballer at Eibar. A footballer of great tactical quality, with intelligence when it comes to interpreting the game, a specialist in doing less showy tasks and, in short, the piece that Garitano needed to provide balance to a midfield with more offensive players such as Javi Muñoz, Expósito or Sielva.
Since his arrival in the summer of 2018, Sergio has played 108 games with the Eibar shirt in which he has scored a goal and given another assist. He is one of the heavyweights in the locker room and is the second captain of the team. His departure would have been a big problem for Garitano, but Palacios has been able to convince him to continue for two more years despite the interest of several clubsincluding Sporting, to get their services.
