Madrid, Nov 17 (IANS) Spanish football club Athletic Bilbao Saturday issued a communique in which it assured the safety of any supporters planning to travel for the club's Europa League game away to Israeli side Hapoel Kyriat Shmona Thursday.

"In the face of the requirements of our club, the European football (UEFA) has communicated to Athletic Club that for the moment the security and as a result, the dispute of the game is guaranteed in Isreal," Athletic said on their official website.

"Athletic Club will communicate immediately any modification that could happen and continues to be in contact on every level to ensure the safety of its directors, coaches, players, supporters and journalists who travel to Israel," continued the communique.
