Template:Spanish name Mikel Balenziaga Oruesagasti (born 29 February 1988 in Zumarraga, Gipuzkoa) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Real Valladolid, on loan from Athletic Bilbao, as a left defender.
Club career
Balenziaga started his football grooming at Real Sociedad, playing two full seasons with its B team in the third division. However, in 2008–09, he switched to neighbours Athletic Bilbao.
Initially thought of as a member of the reserve team, Balenziaga quickly beat competition from veterans Koikili and Javier Casas to become the undisputed first-choice left back for the vast majority of the season, making his first-team debut on 14 September 2008 in a 0–0 away draw against Málaga CF. Another club graduate, Ander Iturraspe, also made his first La Liga appearance in that game.[1]
In July 2009 Athletic bought Xabier Castillo from neighbours Real Sociedad, and Balenziaga, seeing his first-team chances for the upcoming season dim, accepted a loan move to CD Numancia, freshly relegated from the top division. After only making a single appearance from Athletic in the 2010–11 season, he has been loaned to Real Valladolid from 2011.
