The urge to sign new contracts must be contagious: new manager Tito Villanova and sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta have both committed to the club through 2014. Zubi’s contract gives him an option to remain until 2016, should all parties agree. Zubizarreta replaced Txiki Begiristiain in the role as part of the transition to the Rosell presidency. His current agreement bonds him to the club until June 30, 2014.
