Transfers between Athletic Bilbao & Real Sociedad- List of Famous Players to have moved from Sociedad to Athletic Club

Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad are Basque rivals, although there’s not as much bad blood, so as to speak, between the two clubs as there would be, between say, Lazio and Roma, or Rangers and Celtic.

Somewhat unique in this respect, Athletic Club have the policy of signing only Basque players. Sociedad used to follow that policy too before abandoning it in the late 1980’s when they signed John Aldridge from Liverpool.
