Carlos Gurpegui Nausia (alternate spelling Gurpegi; born 19 August 1980) is a Spanish football manager and former player who played as a central defender or defensive midfielder.
He spent his entire professional career with Athletic Bilbao,{{cite news|url=http://www.deia.com/2010/09/04/athletic/las-cuatro-esquinas-de-gurpegi|title=Las cuatro esquinas de Gurpegi|trans-title=Gurpegi's four corners|newspaper=Deia|first=César|last=Ortuzar|language=Spanish|date=4 September 2010|accessdate=10 October 2012|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20130121200755/http://www.deia.com/2010/09/04/athletic/las-cuatro-esquinas-de-gurpegi|archivedate=21 January 2013}} which was marred by a two-year ban due to a nandrolone positive test.{{cite news|url=http://masdeporte.as.com/masdeporte/2003/05/06/polideportivo/1052194618_850215.html|title=Suspensión de dos años para Gurpegui|trans-title=Two-year suspension for Gurpegui|newspaper=Diario AS|first=Juan M.|last=Gascón|language=Spanish|date=7 May 2003|accessdate=5 May 2016}}{{cite web|url=https://www.uefa.com/news/0197-0e6a75e44e1a-36731d0c8ebb-1000--two-year-ban-for-gurpegi/|title=Two-year ban for Gurpegi|publisher=UEFA|date=3 November 2003|access-date=26 May 2010}} Over 14 La Liga seasons, he appeared in 393 matches in all competitions and scored 22 goals.{{cite web|url=https://eldesmarque.com/bizkaia/athletic-club/noticias/314765-se-cumplen-20-anos-del-debut-de-carlos-gurpegi-mitifico-el-dorsal-18|title=Se cumplen 20 años del debut de Carlos Gurpegi: "Mitificó el dorsal 18"|trans-title=20th anniversary of Carlos Gurpegi's debut: "He turned jersey 18 into a myth"|publisher=El Desmarque|first=Noelia|last=Cabanillas|language=Spanish|date=31 March 2022|accessdate=14 April 2022}}
Club career
Born in Pamplona and raised in the village of Andosilla, Navarre, Gurpegui was a product of Athletic Bilbao's Lezama youth academy, and made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 31 March 2002 in a 5–2 away defeat against Villarreal CF,{{cite news|url=http://www.elmundo.es/elmundodeporte/2002/03/31/liga/1017599724.html|title=Segundo correctivo seguido para el Athletic de Bilbao|trans-title=Second hard lesson in a row for Athletic Bilbao|newspaper=El Mundo|first=Bruno|last=Ciurana|language=Spanish|date=31 March 2002|accessdate=5 May 2016}} going on to establish himself as the first-choice holding midfielder in the following years with 121 games in four seasons. On 17 January 2004, he scored a late equaliser against FC Barcelona in a 1–1 draw at the Camp Nou.{{cite web|url=http://espnfc.com/uk/en/report/132125/report.html?soccernet=true&cc=5739|title=Barcelona 1–1 Athletic Bilbao|publisher=ESPN Soccernet|date=17 January 2004|accessdate=26 December 2012}}
Gurpegui was banned for two years on 3 November 2003, for testing positive for nandrolone in a 1 September 2002 game against Real Sociedad (4–2 away defeat, scoring both goals) the previous season.{{cite news|url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/2002/09/02/pagina-6/505112/pdf.html|title=Carlos Gurpegi, organizador de juego y goleador|trans-title=Carlos Gurpegi, playmaker and scorer|newspaper=Mundo Deportivo|first=Alberto|last=García|language=Spanish|date=2 September 2002|accessdate=26 December 2012}} The ban was initially suspended{{cite web|url=https://www.uefa.com/news/0198-0e6a75e4481f-7ce626404f1d-1000--gurpegi-given-permission-to-play/|title=Gurpegi given permission to play|publisher=UEFA|date=3 December 2003|access-date=26 May 2010}} after repeated appeals, with the player claiming that his body produced nandrolone naturally,{{cite news|url=http://deportes.elpais.com/deportes/2005/06/08/actualidad/1118215313_850215.html|title=Padilla insiste en que el organismo de Gurpegui generó su alto nivel de nandrolona|trans-title=Padilla insists that Gurpegui's organism generated his high level of nandrolone|newspaper=El País|language=Spanish|date=8 June 2005|accessdate=5 May 2016}} but the appeals were in vain and he eventually was forced to serve his sentence, which ran until 23 April 2008;{{cite web|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/01a3-0e6b4ea3911a-7f8781da0cbd-1000--athletic-announce-new-gurpegui-appeal/|title=Athletic announce new Gurpegui appeal|publisher=UEFA|date=26 November 2004|access-date=26 May 2010}} Athletic Bilbao, however, neither released the player nor took his number from the official squad,{{cite news|url=http://archivo.marca.com/edicion/marca/futbol/1a_division/athletic/es/desarrollo/1115105.html|title=El 'caso Gurpegui' llega a su fin|trans-title=Curtain call to 'Gurpegui affair'|newspaper=Marca|first=David|last=Menayo|language=Spanish|date=22 April 2008|accessdate=5 May 2016}} and he returned to action in a 3–0 away loss to Real Madrid four days later.{{cite news|url=http://blogs.elcorreo.com/elcorner/2008/04/28/un-abultado-3-0/|title=Un abultado 3–0|trans-title=Heavy 3–0|newspaper=El Correo|first=Jesús J.|last=Hernández|language=Spanish|date=28 April 2008|accessdate=5 May 2016}}
In the 2008–09 campaign, Gurpegui was used mostly as a backup due to the emergence of youngster Javi Martínez, but regained his starting position in the following years, precisely alongside Martínez.{{cite news|url=https://as.com/futbol/2010/12/15/mas_futbol/1292367623_850215.html|title=Gurpegui: "Javi Martínez no está en su mejor momento"|trans-title=Gurpegui: "Javi Martínez is not having his best moment"|newspaper=Diario AS|language=Spanish|date=15 December 2010|accessdate=14 April 2022}}{{cite web|url=https://www.goal.com/es/news/21/fichajes/2011/04/26/2458596/mercado-gurpegui-ya-habr%C3%ADa-renovado-con-el-athletic|title=Mercado: Gurpegui ya habría renovado con el Athletic|trans-title=Market: Gurpegui could have already renewed with Athletic|publisher=Goal|language=Spanish|date=26 April 2011|accessdate=14 April 2022}} On 28 November 2010, he headed home in the last minute against hometown club CA Osasuna, in a 1–0 home win.{{cite web|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=302110&cc=5739|title=Gurpegi hits late winner|publisher=ESPN Soccernet|date=28 November 2010|accessdate=9 April 2011|archive-date=24 October 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121024152639/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=302110&cc=5739|url-status=dead}}
Gurpegui was again an important player in 2011–12 under new coach Marcelo Bielsa.{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2011/oct/03/athletic-bilbao-la-liga|title=Marcelo Bielsa finally begins to get a tune out of Athletic Bilbao|newspaper=The Guardian|first=Sid|last=Lowe|date=3 October 2011|accessdate=14 April 2022}} On 23 October 2011, having replaced Andoni Iraola at half-time in an eventual 1–1 draw at Valencia CF,{{cite web|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/_/id/323949?cc=5739|title=Soldado saves the day for Valencia|publisher=ESPN Soccernet|date=23 October 2011|accessdate=25 October 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120717125603/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/_/id/323949?cc=5739|archive-date=17 July 2012}} he also had to leave the pitch early into the second half, with a torn anterior cruciate ligament which ended his season.{{cite web|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/974285/athletic-bilbao%27s-carlos-gurpegi-set-for-lengthy-spell-out?cc=5739|title=Gurpegi set for lengthy spell out|publisher=ESPN Soccernet|date=24 October 2011|accessdate=25 October 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130103015016/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/974285/athletic-bilbao's-carlos-gurpegi-set-for-lengthy-spell-out?cc=5739|archive-date=3 January 2013}}{{cite news|url=https://www.marca.com/2012/05/24/en/football/spanish_football/1337850044.html|title=Marcelo Bielsa recalls Gurpegui|newspaper=Marca|date=24 May 2012|accessdate=14 April 2022}}
After Martínez left in summer 2012 to join FC Bayern Munich, Gurpegui was chosen by Bielsa as the next player to be converted from defensive midfielder to central defender.{{cite news|url=http://www.mundodeportivo.com/20120722/athletic-bilbao/gurpegi-hemos-mejorado_54327525074.html|title=Gurpegi: "Hemos mejorado"|trans-title=Gurpegi: "We have improved"|newspaper=Mundo Deportivo|first=Alberto|last=García|language=Spanish|date=22 July 2012|accessdate=10 October 2012}} After playing a big role in their qualification for the tournament through finishing fourth domestically in 2013–14, partnering the much younger Aymeric Laporte, he featured in defence in six matches in the subsequent edition of the UEFA Champions League.{{cite news|url=https://www.mundodeportivo.com/20140608/athletic-bilbao/el-athletic-respira-tranquilo-con-laporte-y-gurpegi_54408792163.html|title=El Athletic respira tranquilo con Laporte y Gurpegi|trans-title=Athletic take a breather with Laporte and Gurpegi|newspaper=Mundo Deportivo|first=Ainara|last=San Cristóbal|language=Spanish|date=8 June 2014|accessdate=6 December 2018}}{{cite web|url=https://www.eitb.eus/es/deportes/futbol/athletic/detalle/3182868/athletic-club--gurpegi-renueva-contrato-seguira-ano-mas/|title=Gurpegi seguirá un año más|trans-title=Gurpegi will continue another year|publisher=EITB|language=Spanish|date=5 May 2015|accessdate=6 December 2018}}
The team reached three finals of the Copa del Rey in Gurpegui's time at the San Mamés Stadium, losing them all to Barcelona – he was an unused substitute on every occasion. He did play in both legs of the 2015 Supercopa de España against the same opponents, lifting the trophy as captain.{{cite web|url=http://www.espnfc.co.uk/spanish-super-cup/match/427686/athletic-bilbao-barcelona/report|title=Barcelona stunned 4–0 by Athletic Bilbao in first leg of Super Cup|publisher=ESPN FC|date=14 August 2015|accessdate=5 October 2018}}{{cite web|url=http://www.espnfc.co.uk/spanish-super-cup/match/427685/barcelona-athletic-bilbao/report|title=Athletic Bilbao manage draw at Barcelona to win Spanish Super Cup|publisher=ESPN FC|date=17 August 2015|accessdate=5 October 2018}}
On 11 May 2016, by now a fringe player, 35-year-old Gurpegui announced he would retire from the game at the end of the season.{{cite news|url=http://www.marca.com/futbol/athletic/2016/05/11/573328d2ca4741e2758b45a3.html|title=Gurpegui ve "el momento perfecto para dejarlo"|trans-title=Gurpegui sees this as "the perfect moment to quit"|newspaper=Marca|language=Spanish|date=11 May 2016|accessdate=11 May 2016}}{{cite news|url=https://as.com/futbol/2016/05/12/portada/1463062614_702603.amp.html|title=Yo quiero ser Gurpegui|trans-title=I want to be Gurpegui|newspaper=Diario AS|first=Nika|last=Cuenca|language=Spanish|date=12 May 2016|accessdate=5 October 2018}}
International career
Gurpegui played six matches (one goal) for the unofficial Basque selection.{{cite web|url=http://bizkaia.eldesmarque.com/athletic-club/noticias/53415-la-euskal-selekzioa-homenajea-a-gurpegui|title=La Euskal Selekzioa homenajea a Gurpegui|trans-title=The Basque Selection pay homage to Gurpegui|publisher=El Desmarque|language=Spanish|date=25 May 2016|accessdate=5 October 2018}} He also featured for the equivalent Navarrese team.{{cite news|url=http://www.lavozdegalicia.es/hemeroteca/2005/12/26/4372894.shtml|title=Navarra perdona la goleada a la selección china y vence por 1–0|trans-title=Navarre forgive thrashing of Chinese team and win 1–0|newspaper=La Voz de Galicia|language=Spanish|date=26 December 2005|accessdate=5 October 2018|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160809093053/http://www.lavozdegalicia.es/hemeroteca/2005/12/26/4372894.shtml|archivedate=9 August 2016}}
Gurpegui had already retired from club football when he appeared in his last friendly for the Basque Country on 27 May 2016, a draw and win on penalties over Corsica.{{cite news|url=http://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/20160527/402094701817/1-1-8-9-la-seleccion-vasca-supera-a-corcega-en-la-tanda-de-penaltis.html|title=1–1 (8–9).

The Basque team beat Corsica in the penalty shoot-out|newspaper=Mundo Deportivo|language=Spanish|date=27 May 2016|accessdate=5 October 2018}}
Coaching career
On retiring from playing, Gurpegui was appointed to a coaching role at Athletic Bilbao working under Ernesto Valverde.{{cite news|url=http://athletic.elcorreo.com/gurpegui-nuevo-embajador-20170724204959-nt.html|title=Gurpegui, nuevo embajador institucional por Ibaigane|trans-title=Gurpegui, new institutional ambassador for Ibaigane|newspaper=El Correo|first=Juanma|last=Mallo|language=Spanish|date=24 June 2017|accessdate=5 October 2018}} However, when the latter moved to Barcelona in the 2017 off-season he did not take the former with him, nor was there any place in the new Athletic coaching structure under José Ángel Ziganda; instead, Gurpegui was appointed as an ambassador for the club.
In December 2021, having rejoined the club's coaching network, Gurpegui was appointed head coach of the farm team, CD Basconia, with previous incumbent Patxi Salinas having moved up to the reserves.{{cite web|url=https://www.athletic-club.eus/en/news/2021/12/14/patxi-salinas-nuevo-entrenador-del-bilbao-athletic|title=Patxi Salinas appointed Bilbao Athletic head coach|publisher=Athletic Bilbao|date=14 December 2021|accessdate=16 December 2021}} On 30 May 2023, he replaced Alex Pallarés at the helm of the latter, recently relegated to Segunda Federación.{{cite web|url=https://www.athletic-club.eus/en/news/2023/05/30/carlos-gurpegui-to-coach-bilbao-athletic|title=Carlos Gurpegui appointed Bilbao Athletic head coach|publisher=Athletic Bilbao|date=30 May 2023|accessdate=3 August 2023}}
On 6 May 2024, after achieving promotion to Primera Federación as league winners, Gurpegui stepped down from his position.{{cite web|url=https://www.athletic-club.eus/en/news/2024/05/06/carlos-gurpegui-to-step-down-as-bilbao-athletic-head-coach/|title=Carlos Gurpegui to step down as Bilbao Athletic head coach|publisher=Athletic Bilbao|date=6 May 2024|accessdate=8 May 2024}}
Personal life
Gurpegui's older brother, Pedro María, was also a footballer who played as a forward. He had a spell in the reserve side of Osasuna, coming up against his younger sibling in a league fixture in the semi-professional Segunda División B in 2000.{{cite news|url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/2000/10/22/pagina-32/674012/pdf.html#&mode=fullScreen|title=Primer revés de los cachorros|trans-title=First setback for the pups|newspaper=Mundo Deportivo|first=Antonio|last=San Juan|language=Spanish|date=22 October 2000|accessdate=14 April 2022}}{{cite news|url=https://as.com/futbol/2011/04/15/mas_futbol/1302848830_850215.html|title=Gurpegui: "Osasuna no controla a los navarros"|trans-title=Gurpegui: "Osasuna does not control the Navarrese"|newspaper=Diario AS|first=Javier|last=Beltrán|language=Spanish|date=15 April 2011|accessdate=14 April 2022}}
Pedro's career stalled after a serious knee injury,{{cite news|url=https://www.diariodenavarra.es/noticias/deportes/futbol/osasuna/por_alusiones_senor_izco.html|title=Por alusiones: Señor Izco|trans-title=For allusions: Mister Izco|newspaper=Noticias de Navarra|language=Spanish|date=17 April 2011|accessdate=5 October 2018}} and he never played above that level.
