Club career
editIzazola graduated from the youth academy of UNAM.[1] He started his senior career with Pumas CCH in 2007, in the third tier. In the following season, he moved to the second tier with Pumas Morelos (B-team). In 2011, he was promoted to the senior team. On 22 January, he made his debut, coming on as a substitute for Javier Cortés in a 3–3 draw against Cruz Azul.[2] He played sparingly during the season, with his team winning the Clausura.[1]
Izazola spent the 2012 season with Pumas Morelos. In 2013, he was loaned out to Querétaro, but made no appearance.[3]
On 2 August 2017, Izazola switched to fellow Mexican club Atlante.[4] Three days later, he made his debut in a 1–0 victory against Celaya.[5] After a loan deal with Atlético San Luis, Izazola joined Hungarian club Budapest Honvéd on a six-month long loan deal on 31 January 2015.[6][7] After returning from loan, he made no further appearance in Apertura 2015 Copa MX, so subsequently he started playing with the under-20 team.[1]
On 16 June 2016, at the age of 24, Izazola announced his retirement from professional football. He published a letter, citing the "treatment given to Mexican soccer players" as the reason behind his early retirement.[8] However, on 24 December, he came out of retirement and signed for Guatamelan club Comunicaciones.[1]
On 29 January 2018, Izazola signed for Spanish club Salamanca CF.[9] He scored one goal in 11 matches, with his side winning promotion to Segunda División B.[10][11] On 26 September, he joined Indian I-League club Churchill Brothers.[12] He rescinded his contract ten days later after arriving to India on 15 October, citing the " socio-economic conditions of the country, in addition to the club's sports project" the reason behind his decision.[13]
On 10 January 2019, Izazola joined Albanian Superliga club Kamza.[14]
