Osasuna sporting director appointment and coaching change

Overview

Osasuna has appointed José Antonio Prieto, also known as ‘Cata’, as the club’s new sporting director. Prieto succeeds Braulio Vázquez with a contract intended to run until 2029. His strategic focus involves maintaining organizational continuity and strengthening the club’s youth academy.

During his introduction, Prieto highlighted the importance of key personnel, describing striker Ante Budimir as “the best center forward in the history of Osasuna” and expressing confidence in the long-term potential of right-back Iñigo Arguibilde. Following the leadership change, the club signed midfielder Pablo Iturria Moral, a former academy player, to Osasuna Promesas on a two-and-a-half-season agreement starting in January.

In response to poor performance in La Liga, where the club sits in sixteenth place after eight matches, Osasuna has reappointed Jagoba Arrasate as head coach. Arrasate, who previously managed the club from 2018 to 2024, replaces Luis Miguel Ramis. The dismissal of Ramis follows a period where the team secured only two victories, two draws, and four defeats, including a heavy 2-5 loss against Real Betis.

Arrasate, the second most experienced coach in the club's history, has signed a contract running until June 30, 2029. He returns to a roster that includes 15 players from his previous era. Following a recent 2-0 defeat against Sevilla, Arrasate noted that the team must accept the reality that Sevilla is currently the superior side and use the defeat as a learning experience.
