Christian Imga switches agency and Athletic eye his contract
The 17-year-old winger, tied to Athletic until 2031, joins Lian Sports, an agency with a strong presence in Europe's top leagues.
Christian Imga, 17-year-old winger of Bilbao Athletic, is changing his representation agency: his future now goes through Lian Sports, an Irish-registered firm that, according to MARCA, has a strong presence in transfers across Europe's major leagues.
The young international, who has been called up several times by Terzic and has played two matches with Athletic's first team, is under contract at Athletic until 2031 with certain improvement clauses. That deal will be revisited when he comes of age, so the change of agent points to adjustments in his terms.
His arrival at the club came quickly: after rejecting a renewal with Alavés, Athletic brought his signing forward to the winter window of 2025. Mikel Gonzålez, Athletic's sporting director, has known him since the under-age ranks at Alavés and sees him almost as a son.
