[edit] Football career

A product of Athletic de Bilbao's prolific youth system, Murillo made his debut for its first team on 24 November 2001 in a 2–1 away win against FC Barcelona. He made a further 18 first division appearances in the following season, after breaking his leg during preseason.[1]

From 2004–07, Murillo would be an important defensive element, playing as a right back or in the middle, but would suffer greatly with injuries subsequently. After nearly a year without competitive appearances, on 21 December 2008, he started in a 1–0 win at Real Betis, only to leave the pitch before half-time, injured.

On 11 August 2009, after only appearing twice during 2008–09, Murillo moved to second division's UD Salamanca, in a season-long move.[2]

In late August 2010, Murillo rescinded his Athletic link and left the club after 11 years, moving to Celta de Vigo also in the second level.[3]
