Nicolás "Nico" Serrano Galdeano (born 5 March 2003) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a winger for Athletic Bilbao.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Serrano joined Villarreal CF's youth setup in 2015, aged 12, after representing UDC Txantrea and CA Osasuna.[2] In August 2018, at the age of 15, he signed for Athletic Bilbao.[3]

In May 2020, after finishing his formation, Serrano was promoted straight to the reserves, without playing for CD Basconia, the farm team,[4] and signed a professional contract late in the month.[5] He made his senior debut on 18 July, coming on as a second-half substitute for Juan Artola in a 1–1 home draw against CD Badajoz, in the 2020 Segunda División B play-offs.[6]

Serrano scored his first senior goal on 7 November 2020, netting the opener in a 2–1 home win over SD Amorebieta.[7] In June of the following year, he was called up by manager Marcelino to make the pre-season with the main squad.[8]

Serrano made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 11 September 2021, replacing Iñaki Williams late into a 2–0 home win over RCD Mallorca.[9] On 11 August of the following year, he was loaned to Segunda División side CD Mirandés for the season.[10]

On 10 August 2023, Serrano moved on a new season-long loan to PEC Zwolle in the Netherlands.[11] In January 2024, his loan at Zwolle was terminated to allow him to join Racing de Ferrol until the end of the season.[12]

On 31 January 2025, after featuring rarely for the Lions, Serrano joined Sporting de Gijón in the second division on loan.[13] He later returned to his parent club Athletic Bilbao, scoring his first UEFA Champions League goal in a 3–2 away win over Atalanta on 21 January 2026.[14]

International career

[edit]

Serrano represented Spain at under-16, under-17 and under-18 levels.[15] He was called up to the Basque Country national team for a friendly match against Palestine on 15 November 2025.[16]

Personal life

[edit]

Serrano is a cousin of television personality and influencer Sofía Suescun.[17]
