The Williams brothers round out their figures: Iñaki, sixth at Athletic and Nico reaches 200

On August 22 in Bilbao, the Athletic Club held a tribute for three of its World Cup champions—Unai Simón, Aymeric Laporte, and Nico Williams—alongside former player and national team coach Luis de la Fuente.
The ceremony took place at San Mamés prior to the team's league match against Sevilla. The event celebrated the players' international success with the national squad before the start of domestic competition.
However, the celebratory mood was short-lived as the ensuing match marked a difficult start to the new project under coach Edin Terzic. Athletic Club suffered a heavy 1-3 defeat to a practical and efficient Sevilla side, a result heavily influenced by an early red card shown to Yuri Berchiche before the first half was complete.
