Valencia CF will take on Real Sociedad at 9:00 p.m. on Sunday, September 20, at Mestalla. As part of the Club’s collaboration with Valencian artist Lawerta to pay tribute to the final season at our historic stadium, a commemorative poster has been created for the fixture.
The poster takes inspiration from Valencia CF in the 1940s, when the vast majority of the squad came from the Basque Country, with several players born in Donostia.
One of the poster’s protagonists is Ignacio Eizaguirre, a three-time LaLiga champion (1941–42, 1943–44 and 1946–47), winner of the 1949 Copa del Rey and the 1948–49 Copa Eva Duarte, and a two-time ‘Zamora’ Trophy winner (1944 and 1945). Eizaguirre spent nine seasons with Valencia CF and made 18 appearances for Spain.
