The only reason why I am posting this note published by The International Herald Tribune is because they are calling Osasuna a Basque football team, which I am sure will enrage more than one Spaniard claiming that Navarre is not part of the Basque Country.

Osasuna hires Camacho as coach

Published: October 13, 2008
PAMPLONA, Spain: Osasuna hired former Spain and Real Madrid coach Jose Camacho on Monday, hours after firing Jose Angel Ziganda.
The 53-year-old Camacho agreed to lead the Basque club through the end of the current Spanish league, with financial details not offered.
Osasuna released Ziganda six games into his third season, with the club lying 16th in the 20-team standings with four points.
Camacho had largely been working in television since March when he quit Benfica seven months into his second spell at the Portuguese club.
