Astiz off to Legia Warszawa

This caught us all by surprise. We were expecting Iñaki Astiz, to have probably taken part in the summer pre-season with Osasuna, but finally he is off to Poland. The fact that Jan Urban, one of the most important players in the history of Osasuna, will be the Legia trainer this year and that he knows the player, have been a key element in Astiz going to the Polish League.

He had offers from other second division teams in Spain, but he has accepted the challenge of going abroad. Urban described him on Legia´s website:
"He is good in the air, has the ability to take out the ball. The only problem is, how will he deal with the pressure put by fans. But I hope he will do enough. He is in the similar age as the majority of our players. As a matter of fact, he should have no problems to enter the team."

We wish Iñaki the best in his Polish experience and we hope Legia Warszawa complete an excellent season.
