Club career

Rayo

Born in Madrid, Arribas began his career in the youth ranks of CF Rayo Majadahonda, being signed by neighbouring Rayo Vallecano in 2008. He spent almost two full seasons with the reserves, making his professional debuts with CDA Navalcarnero in the second half of 2008–09 and going on to be regularly used in a relegation-ending campaign in Segunda División B.

In 2009–10, Arribas helped Rayo B promote to the third level, moving to the first team shortly after – in Segunda División – and being an automatic first-choice (38 games out of 42) as the latter returned to La Liga after eight years. In the 2011–12 season he started in all of his 34 league appearances as the capital outskirts side narrowly avoided relegation, scoring in a 2–3 home loss against Athletic Bilbao on 28 January 2012.[1]

Osasuna

In late June 2012, free agent Arribas signed a three-year contract with CA Osasuna.[2] He was an ever-present figure for the Navarrese, appearing in 34 matches in his debut campaign.[3]

Sevilla

On 27 July 2014, following Osasuna's relegation, Arribas agreed to a two-year deal with fellow league club Sevilla FC.[4] He played 18 games across all competitions in his only season, including three in the UEFA Europa League group stage as his team won the competition for the second time in a row.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Deportivo

On 24 June 2015, Arribas signed a four-year contract at Deportivo de La Coruña.[12][13] His first league match for them took place on 30 August, when he featured the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 draw at Valencia CF.[14] and he scored twice in his first year[15][16] to help to a 15th-place finish.

Pumas

On 8 December 2017, after only three league appearances during the first part of the season as well as some run-ins with teammates,[17] 28-year-old Arribas moved abroad for the first time in his career and joined Club Universidad Nacional in the Mexican Liga MX.[18]
