Francisco Yeste height - How tall is Francisco Yeste?

In July 2011, Yeste signed with Greek champions Olympiacos FC, reuniting with former Athletic Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde. On 17 January 2012, his contract was mutually terminated; the following day, he returned to the United Arab Emirates and joined Baniyas SC for six months.

Yeste featured irregularly in the 2009–10 season, also being ousted by manager Joaquín Caparrós for more than one month. In the first match upon his return, a 0–2 loss at Atlético Madrid on 25 March 2010, he was booked; on 21 May, after his contract expired, he announced his departure from the club through his agent.

On 19 June 2010, Yeste agreed to a two-year deal with Al Wasl FC. In March of the following year, during the 2010–11 Etisalat Emirates Cup semi-final against Al Ain FC, the opponents took the lead before the 50th minute (49:27) and, as they were still celebrating, he shot from the centre circle to score a goal that was described by Dutch news site Voetbal Stijl as "The fastest equalizer in the history of football" (49:54).

At times troubled with injuries, Yeste continued to appear prominently, playing all the league matches in 2006–07 as Athletic barely avoided relegation (17th) and scoring five goals in the process. A player of volatile temperament, he was also sent off five times from 2007 to 2009 and added 14 yellow cards, one of the ejections occurring after he pushed Real Madrid's Iker Casillas in a 2–5 home loss.

From 2000–01 onwards, Yeste was used regularly in the main squad, scoring six La Liga goals during that year including two in a 4–0 home win over Real Oviedo on 10 December 2000. After regular displays in 2003–04 he won a callup for Spain, although he did not make his debut; he scored a career-best 11 goals in the latter campaign, with the Basques finishing fifth and qualifying to the UEFA Cup.

Born in Basauri, Biscay, and a product of Athletic Bilbao's youth academy at Lezama, Yeste made his first-team debut on 7 February 1999, playing the full 90 minutes in a 0–2 away loss against Racing de Santander. He would appear in a further 13 games that and the following seasons combined, while mainly registered with the reserves.
