Enriched Bilbao's "Athletic" club wanted to acquire an expensive player.
"Marca" reports that the "La Liga" team has set its sights on Real Sociedad's forward Mikel Oyarzabal.
The 21-year-old talent's contract includes a 50 million euro buyout option, but to their local rivals from the city of Bilbao, it is 10 million euros higher.
