Club career
Born in Arrasate, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country,[2] Gorosabel represented UD Aretxabaleta and Real Sociedad as a youth, appearing in the UEFA Youth League in 2013.[3] On 11 July 2014, after finishing his formation, he was loaned to SD Beasain in Tercera División,[4] making his senior debut during the season.
Upon returning, Gorosabel was assigned to farm team Berio FT, also in the fourth tier. On 9 July 2016, he was loaned to Segunda División B side Real Unión for one year.[5]
On 16 June 2017, Gorosabel renewed his Real Sociedad contract until 2019 and was promoted to the reserves, also competing in the third level.[6] He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 21 September, starting in a 0–3 away loss against Levante UD.[7]
On 5 December 2017, Gorosabel renewed his contract until 2021,[8] and spent the remainder of the campaign as a second-choice to Álvaro Odriozola, overtaking longtime incumbent Carlos Martínez. In July 2018, as both Odriozola and Martínez left, he was definitely promoted to the main squad.[9]
