Terzic sets tone at Lezama with intense first session, '¡A dos toques!' | OneFootball

Edin Terzic led his first Athletic session at Lezama on Tuesday, a high-energy workout on Campo 5 lined with metal mannequins, poles, tape and cones, echoing Marcelo Bielsa’s set-ups in his Athletic days. As reported by as.com, it underlined his intensity from the outset.

Early rondos were brisk, with Terzic repeatedly calling “¡A dos toques!” in some of his first words in Spanish. He was flanked by his staff, assistant Geppert communicating in English, and Casamichana directing the physical work and sequencing of drills.

The day brought protocol photographs, debutants Johaneko, Monreal and Gift, a 29-player group shot awaiting the four World Cup players, and a full staff picture. De Marcos was hands-on. Andoni Gorosabel trained alone on Campo1 as he manages a muscle injury.

Unai Vencedor was absent, and he remains under contract until June 2027. Unai Gómez was transferred to Udinese, made official on Tuesday.

Urko Uzeta remains in contention at Lezama, with Cádiz intent on sealing his signing. Julen Agirrezabala worked with Padilla and Santos in specific drills under the supervision of Aitor Iru.
