Here's the translated text: ```html

The Cathedral will bid farewell, with honors, to Álvaro Gastón in the last game of his career as a handball player that he will play at home, on Saturday, May 25, against Viveros Herol BM. Nava. A one club man says goodbye who has lived his entire sports career in the same team, an Anaitasuna who arrived at the age of 7 from Balonmano Maristas and with whom he has fulfilled all his dreams over 24 seasons.

In his 12 seasons in the ASOBAL League, the right winger of Anaitasuna has become the second player of the Navarrese entity who has worn the Anaita shirt the most times. His records in the elite mark 595 goals in 314 matches that will be expanded in his last two chapters in the Plenitude League. Helvetia Anaitasuna will experience the farewell of its fourth captain and his number two that has left countless memories on that right wing and who says goodbye to the club of his life with an emotional video that describes the pride of having been part of the Anaita family.

Álvaro Gastón – Helvetia Anaitasuna Player

“Greens, I am Álvaro, and I want to talk to you a little about myself. Like many of you, I have always been from Anaita. I was born into a very handball family and I could not be different. From a very young age I did not want to be a handball player, I wanted to be an Anaita player. I remember being in the schoolyard watching my older brother play, Saturdays at the pavilion watching the first team's matches with that ball that no one could let go of me. Lately I have thought a lot about that boy, about what that Álvaro would have said if they had told him that he would fulfill all his dreams: that he would reach the first team of Anaitasuna, that he would achieve promotion to ASOBAL, that he would play a King's Cup final in The Cathedral, that he would qualify for Europe and could score the club's first goal in the competition, that he would be one of the captains, that he would make friends for life, that he always had his family supporting him in the stands”.

“Now 24 years have passed since I arrived at the club, handball has given me everything. Anaitasuna has given me everything. You have given me everything. And now that the dreams of that boy have been fulfilled I want to tell you that I have decided to close this cycle. I always told my family that after Anaita there would be no other team. And so it will be. This May 25 will be my last game as a handball player. The last defending the shield of this great club. See you at The Cathedral. Long live Anaita always”.
