Club career

Born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Oyarzun joined Real Sociedad's youth system in 2005 at the age of 12, after starting out at AS Les Eglantins d'Hendaye, a French club based in Hendaye. On 18 June 2012 he signed his first professional contract, running until 2014, at the same time being promoted to the reserves.[1]

Oyarzun made his debut as a senior in 2012–13, and went on to appear in several Segunda División B seasons. He was called up by the first team for a La Liga match against RCD Espanyol on 30 November 2013,[2] but remained unused in the 2–1 away win.[3]

Oyarzun extended his contract with the Txuri-urdin on 21 January 2014, signing until 2018.[4] On 4 December he made his first-team debut, replacing fellow youth graduate David Zurutuza in a 0–0 away draw with Real Oviedo in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey.[5]

On 20 August 2015, Oyarzun was definitely promoted to the main squad and given the #12 jersey.[6] On 25 January of the following year, after making no league appearances, he was loaned to CD Mirandés of Segunda División until June.[7]

Oyarzun scored his first professional goal on 9 April 2016, the only one of the game in a home victory over SD Ponferradina.[8] On 13 July, his loan was extended for a year.[9]

On 6 July 2017, Oyarzun signed a permanent two-year deal with Real Zaragoza, with Real Sociedad having a buy-back clause.[10] Roughly one year later, he agreed to a two-year contract with fellow second division side CD Numancia.[11]
