Club career

edit

Born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Sarriegi represented Antiguoko and Real Sociedad as a youth. He was promoted to the latter's reserves on 23 June 2014,[1] but opted to join RCD Mallorca B shortly after, being immediately loaned to Peña Sport FC.[2]

Sarriegi returned to Mallorca in July 2015, but moved to another reserve team, CD Vitoria, on 30 December.[3] He made his debut for the first team – SD Eibar – on 12 January 2017, starting in a 0–0 home draw against CA Osasuna for the Copa del Rey.[4] His first La Liga appearance took place on 5 November, when he came on as a 59th-minute substitute in the 1–3 away loss to Real Sociedad, being booked late in the match.[5]

On 9 July 2018, Sarriegi moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Bahraini Premier League side East Riffa Club.[6]

On 30 June 2021, he joined Primera División RFEF club Calahorra.[7] A year later he joined neighbours SD Logroñés, then switched to UD Logroñés in 2023.[8]

Personal life

edit

Sarriegi's younger brother Oier (born 1997) is also a footballer.[9] A forward or right back, he too began at Antiguoko before being signed by Athletic Bilbao in 2015,[10] serving loans and moving on to Deportivo Alavés two years later.[11] Their sister Amaiur Sarriegi (born 2000) plays as a forward for Real Sociedad Femenino having also played for Añorga KKE and Athletic Bilbao.[12]
