The 2019-20 campaign delivered a respectable 14th-place finish for Eibar, with Armeros successfully securing their sixth consecutive season in the Spanish top-flight despite the mid-season turbulence and eventual interruption of the season. Leading the charge was the sensational Chilean winger Fabián Orellana, whose 8 crucial league goals, part of a team-leading 15 goals and assists, proved vital in a campaign built on characteristic grit and determination under manager José Luis Mendilibar. It was a solid year of consolidation that cemented the club's hard-fought place in La Liga, though it became a poignant chapter that marked the eventual departure of the popular Orellana to Real Valladolid.
