Make The Case

Adopting Deportivo Alavés means Spain La Liga results start mattering to you, a club going since 1921. Not a novelty, a habit.

  • Easy weekend

    Vitoria Airport (VIT) is about 6km from the ground, and Vitoria-Gasteiz railway station is 1km closer still. A home fixture is a genuinely doable two-night trip.

  • The calendar you inherit

    Following Spain La Liga means odd kick-off hours, a new commentary language and a table you will check before your own club's. Spain becomes part of your week.

  • Old enough to matter

    1921 is the founding date, old enough that the club has survived a war, a rebuild and at least one financial scare, young enough that the good years are still in living memory.

  • Loaded cabinet

    8 distinct honours on record, including Copa del Rey. Adopt them and you inherit expectation, which is more fun than it sounds when the trophies keep coming.
