Edin Terzic has been identified as a primary candidate for the Athletic Club managerial position, potentially succeeding Ernesto Valverde. The club’s sporting director, Mikel González, reportedly prioritized Terzic following preliminary contacts and discreet meetings in Madrid involving club president Jon Uriarte and general manager Jon Berasategi. Terzic, who has been out of professional coaching since the 2024 Champions League final, has reportedly spent his hiatus refining his methodology through consultations with managers such as Hansi Flick. Flick, the manager of FC Barcelona, previously commented on the rumors, praising Terzic as a “strong fit” for Athletic Club due to his tactical philosophy. In recent developments, Terzic has transitioned into the coaching role. Ahead of a match against FC Barcelona at Camp Nou, Terzic addressed the squad's physical condition, noting that the team is progressing well despite managing injuries. He specifically highlighted that player Daniel Vivian remains unavailable and requires individual training before returning to the group, while Prados is expected to return to team training following recovery from a minor injury. Looking ahead to the fixture at Camp Nou, Athletic Club seeks to recover from a 3-1 loss to Sevilla. The match is expected to take place amidst significant political developments at Barcelona, where President Joan Laporta has announced the cancellation of a tribute to Spain's World Cup champions in favor of promoting an ‘exaltation of the estelada’ as a protest against police actions in Elche.
