Club career

Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Ezkieta represented CA Osasuna as a youth. He made his senior debut with the reserves on 24 August 2014, starting in a 2–0 away win against CD Corellano for the Tercera División championship.

In March 2015, as his contract was due to expire, Ezkieta agreed to a contract with FC Barcelona.[1] The deal was made official on 17 July, with the player signing a four-year deal and being assigned to the B-side in Segunda División B.[2]

On 22 July 2016, Ezkieta was loaned to fellow third division side CE Sabadell FC, for one year.[3] An undisputed starter, he contributed with 37 appearances (3330 minutes of action) as his side narrowly avoided relegation.

Ezkieta subsequently returned to Barça and its reserve team, at the time in Segunda División.[4] He made his professional debut on 25 September, starting in a 1–2 home loss against CD Lugo.[5]
