Playing career

Born in Azkoitia, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Aranbarri made his senior debut with CD Anaitasuna in the 2001–02 season, suffering relegation from Tercera División. In 2004, after scoring 20 goals for the side in the Regional Preferente, he moved to CD Aurrerá Ondarroa in the fourth division.

In 2005, Aranbarri signed for Segunda División B side Barakaldo CF. After one year back in the fourth level, where he scored a career-best 22 goals for Gernika Club, he represented fellow third division sides SD Lemona and Sestao River Club; he would spent the entire 2009–10 campaign sidelined due to an injury with the latter, as they suffered relegation. [1]

Aranbarri left Sestao in 2013, and joined Arenas Club de Getxo in division four on 25 July of that year. [2] He helped the club to achieve promotion in 2015, [3] before retiring in the following year, aged 31.

Managerial career

Shortly after retiring, Aranbarri was named manager of SD Eibar's Cadete Honor squad. He took over the Juvenil squad in August 2019, [4] before being named at the helm of the farm team CD Vitoria on 2 June 2021. [5]

On 8 May 2024, Aranbarri announced he would depart the Armeros at the end of the season, [6] in which Vitoria achieved promotion to Segunda Federación. On 6 June, he joined the structure of Athletic Bilbao, after being named in charge of the reserves in Primera Federación. [7]
