Beñat Prados Díaz (born 8 February 2001) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Athletic Bilbao.
Club career
Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Prados joined Athletic Bilbao's youth setup in July 2015, from UDC Txantrea.[1] He made his senior debut with the farm team during the 2018–19 season, in Tercera División.[2]
Prados made his debut with the reserves on 26 October 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Oihan Sancet in a 4–1 Segunda División B home routing of Real Valladolid Promesas.[3] Definitely promoted to the B-side in June 2020, he subsequently became a regular starter for the team, playing in 25 matches (play-offs included) of the 2020–21 campaign, scoring once in a 3–2 away success over SD Amorebieta on 6 February 2021.
On 14 May 2021, Prados renewed his contract until 2025.[4] In June, he was called up by manager Marcelino to make the pre-season with the main squad.[5]
On 14 July 2022, Prados moved on loan to Segunda División side CD Mirandés for the season.[6] He made his professional debut on 13 August, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Sporting de Gijón.[7]
On 19 August 2023, he made his La Liga debut for Athletic in his hometown of Pamplona at El Sadar against Osasuna, replacing Imanol in a 2–0 victory.[8][9] On 1 September, after the departure of Javier Martón, he was registered in the first team squad with the number '24'.[10] After a few months in which he occasionally filled in as a right-back or center-back, in December he made a place for himself in the centre of midfield, with several impressive displays.[11][12][13]
International career
He was an international in various youth categories of the Spanish national team. In 2017, he attended a friendly tournament with the under-16 team coached by Santi Denia.[14][15][16] He was also an under-18, under-19 and under-20 international.[17][18]
