Ghanaian forward Inaki Williams celebrated his 10th anniversary with Athletic Bilbao on December 6, 2024, marking a remarkable career with his hometown club. The 30-year-old, born in Spain to Ghanaian parents, debuted for the Basque side a decade ago and has since made 441 appearances, scoring 105 goals, making him the club’s 14th all-time top scorer.

This season, he has already scored three La Liga goals as Athletic Bilbao push for a Champions League spot. The club honored him with a heartfelt tribute, praising his contributions and looking forward to more milestones. Williams remains a symbol of dedication and excellence at Bilbao.
