Club career

Athletic Bilbao

Born in Logroño, La Rioja, but nonetheless a product of Athletic de Bilbao's famed youth academy, Lezama, Aranzubia made his first team debut on 10 April 2001, in a 1–3 home derby loss against Real Sociedad. After two seasons as backup to Iñaki Lafuente, he emerged as the side's undisputed starter, helping the Basque to a UEFA Cup spot in 2003–04, while extending his link a further four years.[1]

After additional struggles for first-choice duties with Lafuente in 2005–06 (Aranzubia played in two matches less), Aranzubia was definitely deemed surplus to requirements after the emergence of Gorka Iraizoz, not appearing even when the first-choice was severely injured during the 2007–08 season (Athletic received veteran Armando on loan from Cádiz CF, and he became the starter).

Deportivo

In June 2008, Aranzubia joined Deportivo de La Coruña, helping the Galicians to the UEFA Intertoto Cup, and starting throughout the entire season, save one match due to suspension. On 2 October 2008, he saved three penalties in a shootout against SK Brann in a UEFA Cup first round 2–0 home win, with Depor thus reaching the group stage.[2]

Aranzubia missed the first six games of the 2010–11 season due to injury, but again finished as a starter for Deportivo. On 20 February 2011, he scored with his head after a 95th minute corner kick, as his team managed a 1–1 draw at UD Almería,[3] becoming the first goalkeeper in La Liga history to score from open play.

International career

Aranzubia made his only appearance for Spain on 5 June 2004, in a friendly match with Andorra, in Getafe. He subbed in for Santiago Cañizares, who had already replaced Iker Casillas, at the hour-mark. Aranzubia was then selected as third-choice at UEFA Euro 2004.[4]

Previously, he helped the nation win the 1999 FIFA World Youth Championship and finish runner-up at the 2000 Summer Olympics, starting in both finals.[5]
