Former Spanish footballer Xabi Alonso maintains deep personal and family ties to the town of Ágreda in the Soria province of Castilla y León. This connection originated with his father, Periko Alonso, who began visiting the area for hunting trips in the late 1970s.

Over several decades, these visits evolved into a regular family routine, establishing the mountain village as a significant personal landmark for Xabi and his brother, Mikel. The community has recognized this bond, with local festivities including public proclamations that residents interpreted as a confirmation of the family’s connection to the area.
