Aritz Arambarri Murua (born 31 January 1998) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a central defender for SD Eibar.

Club career

Born in Azkoitia, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Arambarri represented Real Sociedad as youth, joining the club's youth setup in 2011.[1] He made his senior debut with the C-team during the 2016–17 season, in Tercera División.

Arambarri was definitely promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B midway through the 2018–19 campaign, and scored his first senior goal with the side on 9 December 2018 in a 4–2 home win against CD Vitoria.[2] On 1 July 2020, he renewed his contract until 2023.[3]

Arambarri made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 1 November 2020, coming on as a second-half substitute for fellow youth graduate Andoni Gorosabel in a 4–1 home routing of Celta de Vigo.[4][1] He subsequently returned to the B-team, helping in their promotion to Segunda División at the end of the season.

On 22 June 2023, Arambarri signed a two-year contract with CD Leganés in the second level.[5] He helped the club to achieve promotion to the top tier as champions, but was mainly a backup to starters Sergio González and Jorge Sáenz.

On 29 August 2024, Arambarri signed a three-year contract with SD Eibar in the second division.[6]
