Mikel Orbegozo Orbegozo (born 15 April 1989) is a Spanish footballer who plays for SD Beasain as a striker.
Club career
[edit]Born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Orbegozo began his career with hometown club Real Sociedad, playing four seasons with the reserves. In 2009–10, he scored a career-best 26 goals as the Basques returned to the Segunda División B after one year out.
On 2 July 2011, free agent Orbegozo signed a contract with neighbouring Athletic Bilbao running until 2014.[1] He was immediately assigned to the B side, also in the third tier.
Orbegozo was loaned to Gimnàstic de Tarragona of Segunda División in early January 2012, on a six-month deal.[2] He made his league debut on the 13th, in a 1–0 away loss against Celta de Vigo.[3]
After subsequently serving loan stints at Sestao River Club[4] and SD Amorebieta (both in his native Basque Country),[5] Orbegozo was released by the Lions on 26 May 2014.[6] On 15 June he joined another reserve team, Getafe CF B.[7]
Personal life
[edit]Orbegozo's older brother, Jon, was also a footballer and a forward. He played and scored regularly (over 200 games, over 50 goals) in the third division with SD Lemona, Barakaldo CF and Amorebieta, but never featured in the professional divisions.[8] Although they were opponents on several occasions,[9] the siblings did not play together as seniors; Jon replaced Mikel in Amorebieta's squad in the summer of 2014.
