Iker Guarrotxena Vallejo (born 6 December 1992) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Greek club Volos.

Club career

Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Guarrotxena joined Athletic Bilbao's youth setup in 2002, aged nine. He made his senior debuts with the farm team in the 2011–12 season, in Tercera División. In the 2012 summer he was promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B.

On 1 August 2014 Guarrotxena moved to Segunda División's CD Tenerife in a season-long loan deal.[1] He played his first match as a professional on the 24th, starting in a 0–1 away loss against SD Ponferradina.[2]

Guarrotxena returned to the B-side for the 2015–16 season, with the club also in the second tier. On 7 June 2016, after suffering relegation, he was released by the Lions.[3]

On 12 July 2016, Guarrotxena signed a two-year deal with CD Mirandés, also in the second tier.[4] Roughly one year later, after suffering relegation, he moved to fellow league team Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.[5]

On 4 August 2018, Guarrotxena moved to Pogoń Szczecin in the Polish Ekstraklasa, signing a three-year deal with the club.[6]

On 2 January 2020, Greek Super League club Volos officially announced the signing of Guarrotxena on a free transfer.[7]

Personal life

He is the nephew of retired footballer Endika, who also came through the ranks at Athletic Bilbao and won trophies with the club in the 1980s.[8]
