Swift rise
Kepa Arrizabalaga has been on Athletic Club’s books since he was nine, swiftly rising through the ranks. After a couple of seasons on loan in the second tier, he made his first-team debut (keeping a clean sheet at Deportivo) in September 2016. Kepa conceded just 22 goals in 23 outings in 2016/17; last season, despite finishing 16th, Athletic shipped fewer than fifth-placed Villarreal.
