Biography

Ignacio 'Iñaki' Bergara Iríbar (born 26 January 1962) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and one of the two current goalkeeper coaches of Belgium.

Football career

Born in Ondarroa, Biscay, Bergara began his career in his native Basque Country with Athletic Bilbao, and represented Spain under-18's in 1980. He made his professional debut with Deportivo Alavés, signing for Real Murcia in La Liga in 1986 and remaining in the top division for the following nine seasons, but almost exclusively as a backup or third-choice.

He also represented Real Sociedad and CD Logroñés, appearing for the latter in 19 league matches during the 1994–95 campaign as the La Rioja club finished last with only 13 points, and 79 goals conceded.

After retiring from football Bergara began working as a goalkeepers' coach, first with Javier Clemente at the club where he began his career, Athletic Bilbao. In 2007, he joined countryman's Roberto Martínez's backroom staff at Swansea City.

In the 2009 summer, as the manager left for the Premier League to sign for Wigan Athletic, Bergara joined him at the Latics. The pair moved to Everton in July 2013.

In August 2016, he followed trainer Roberto Martínez to the Belgian national football team, where he became one of the two goalkeeping coaches, the other being Erwin Lemmens.
