Alain Arroyo Martínez de la Cuadra (born 5 July 1982) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Barakaldo CF mainly as a forward.
Football career
Arroyo was born in Bilbao, Biscay. After starting out in amateur football in his native Basque Country, he signed for Deportivo Alavés B of Segunda División B, going on to remain in the category for the following seasons in representation of Club Portugalete – he had already represented this club – Sestao River Club, SD Lemona, CD Guadalajara[1] and CD Mirandés.[2]
In his second season with the Castille and León side, Arroyo scored a career-best 13 goals to help them promote to Segunda División for the first time in their history. He played his first game in the competition on 17 August 2012, coming on as a substitute in a 0–1 home loss against SD Huesca,[3] and netted his first goal roughly one month later, in a 2–2 draw at Real Murcia.[4]
On 5 June 2013, in a friendly, Arroyo scored the last ever goal at the San Mamés Stadium before it was torn down to make way for Athletic Bilbao's new ground.[5][6]
