Juan Bernat, new Armero player
The left-back signs with SD Eibar until the end of the season with an option for a second season.
SD Eibar and Juan Bernat have reached an agreement for the incorporation of the left-back until the end of the current season with an option for a second campaign. The 32-year-old Valencian footballer, who has already passed the required medical examination, strengthens the defense with extensive experience at the highest level of European football.
Juan Bernat Velasco (Cullera, Valencia, March 1, 1993) is a fast left-back with a clear offensive vocation and a notable ability to reach the opponent's area. He stands out for his depth on the left flank and his ease in providing assists, qualities that have allowed him to establish himself for years in top international clubs.
Trained in the youth ranks of Valencia CF, Bernat debuted with the first team, with which he played 74 official matches. His performance led him to make the leap to FC Bayern Munich, where he played between the 2014/2015 and 2018/2019 seasons, accumulating 102 appearances and winning numerous titles. Subsequently, he was transferred to Paris Saint-Germain, a club where he played 114 matches until the 2024/2025 season.
In the last two seasons, the Valencian defender has played for SL Benfica and Villarreal CF on loan. In January 2025, the "groguet" club formalized his permanent signing, although he later joined Getafe CF, his last experience before arriving at SD Eibar.
The left-back boasts an impressive record: a total of 17 official titles, including four Bundesligas and three German Super Cups with Bayern; four Ligue 1 championships with PSG, among other achievements.
Additionally, Bernat has been a full international with the Spanish National Team, with which he has played 11 matches and scored one goal, and he also holds a U-19 European Championship title.
With this signing, SD Eibar adds experience, quality, and international pedigree to its squad to face the decisive stretch of the season.
Welcome, Juan!
