Eibar is at a crossroads with the potential departure of Beñat San José, their current coach. San José, 46, renewed his contract with the club until 2027 in early June, but his name has gained traction in recent weeks as a candidate to lead Rayo Vallecano. The franjirrojo club has been evaluating several profiles, and San José stands out for his style similar to that of other successful coaches. However, the main obstacle to his signing is the financial cost, as Rayo would need to pay around €400,000 to Eibar. Despite this, both entities could reach an agreement that benefits all parties. San José has made a significant impact at Eibar, achieving an impressive start and the best second half of the season in the club's history. His future remains uncertain, but his recent success makes him an attractive target for other teams.
