Se täytyy vielä lisätä edellisiin, että ei kait se menisi enää läpi edes, että pitäisi olla etninen baski?
Lisäksi tuo on "kirjoittamaton sääntö", että pitää olla niitä jonkinlaisia siteitä olettavasti juuri sen takia, ettei tuosta voida haastaa oikeuteen.
Any player from the communities of the Basque Country and Navarre in Spain, or the Northern Basque Country in France. Though, it should be noted that this is not policy written into the club’s bylaws, and is an unwritten rule.
Yet no candidate for the club’s presidency has ran a campaign promising a move away from this rule, their fans seem to largely support it, and it seems to work, given only they, Real Madrid and Barcelona have never been relegated from Spain’s top tier.
A player being ‘from’ these communities does not have to be born there, though. For instance, Aymeric Laporte became the first Frenchman to graduate from Athletic’s youth system in 2012, but was not born in the French Basque region and his only connection is a blood link from his great-grandparents.
Another former Athletic centre-back, Fernando Amorebieta, was born in Venezuela, but joined the club aged 11 having been raised in the Basque town of Iurreta and having parents who both came from the region.
And former Athletic and Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera, depsite being brought up in Zaragoza and began his career with Real Zaragoza’s youth team, qualified to play for Athletic due to him being born in Vizcaya. So, their criteria perhaps isn’t quite as strict and rigid as it may first appear, or first was.
