Football career
A Real Zaragoza youth graduate, Zaragoza-born Láinez made his professional debuts with its B-side, but struggled initially to find a first-team place. In January 1999 he served a six-month loan stint at Villarreal CF, playing in three La Liga matches as the season ended in relegation.
After his return to Zaragoza, Láinez had to wait until the 2001–02 campaign to become first-choice, but his team would again be relegated. He was instrumental in the Aragonese club's immediate promotion, and subsequently helped it finish in a comfortable 12th place, also conquering that season's Copa del Rey after an extra time win against Real Madrid.
Láinez spent the entire 2004–05 recovering from knee surgery, and ultimately retired from football in May 2005, at only 28. He subsequently became a sports commentator for local TV channels.
