Unai Vencedor Paris (born 15 November 2000) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for SD Eibar, on loan from Athletic Bilbao.
Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Basque Country, Vencedor joined Athletic Bilbao's Lezama academy in 2017, from Santutxu FC. [1] In June of the following year, after finishing his formation, he moved straight into the reserve squad for the pre-season (skipping the usual step to the farm team), [2] and made his senior debut on 29 September by starting in a 2–1 Segunda División B away loss against Real Oviedo Vetusta. [3]
He scored his first senior goal on 15 December 2018, netting his team's second in a 3–2 home win against CD Calahorra. [4] Six days later, he renewed his contract with the Lions until 2023. [5]
Vencedor made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 16 February 2020, starting in a 1–0 home defeat to CA Osasuna. [6] He did not feature again that season and was reported to have requested a loan move to continue his development, but was told he would be in contention for a place during the 2020–21 campaign. He had to wait until the end of November 2020 before making another start against Real Betis, [7] but was selected regularly from then on.
Having established himself in the squad (including winning the Supercopa de España with victories over Real Madrid then FC Barcelona), [8] in February 2021 Vencedor agreed a new contract with Athletic running to the summer of 2025, with a €40 million buyout clause. [9] During the 2022–23 campaign, however, he lost his starting spot to Mikel Vesga and Oihan Sancet.
On 5 August 2023, Vencedor was loaned to Segunda División side SD Eibar for the season. [10]
Vencedor is a youth international for Spain, having represented the under-19s in 2019 [11] and the under-21s in 2021. [12]
