Athletic Bilbao

After being a target of Athletic Bilbao since October 2024, ^[8] Sannadi signed a four-and-a-half-year contract with the club on 1 February 2025, his 24th birthday. ^[9] He made his club and La Liga debut a week later as a second-half substitute in a 3–0 win over Girona at San Mamés (Endika Buján, a reserve squad member and fellow former Barakaldo player, doing likewise). ^{[10] [11]}
