Borja Sainz continues to be monitored by Athletic Bilbao at a time when the Basque club remains attentive to the market to strengthen its squad for next season.
The Spanish winger, who has attracted interest from several clubs, remains on Athletic’s radar, with the club’s decision-makers exploring alternatives to add more competition on the flanks. For now, there have been no formal developments in negotiations, but the player’s name remains on the table.
A potential move for Borja Sainz comes as the Bilbao club prepares for the new season. Athletic is already shaping its pre-season schedule and recently added another friendly to the calendar against Burgos, a side that finished seventh in the last edition of LaLiga Hypermotion with 72 points, just missing out on the promotion play-offs.
That context shows a club already focused on building its squad and planning competitively for 2026/27. Borja Sainz fits that profile of an opportunity being closely monitored, even without confirmation of any immediate progress.
For now, the situation remains open, with Athletic Bilbao keeping the player among its possible targets for the summer transfer window.
