Football career

Born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Orbegozo began his career with hometown club Real Sociedad, playing four seasons with the reserves. In 2009–10, he scored a career-best 26 goals as the Basques returned to the third division after one year out.

On 2 July 2011, free agent Orbegozo signed a contract with neighbouring Athletic Bilbao, keeping him at the club until 2014. He was immediately assigned to the B-team, also in the third level.

In early January 2012, Orbegozo was loaned to Gimnàstic de Tarragona in division two, on a six-month deal. He made his league debut on the 13th, in a 0–1 away loss against Celta de Vigo.

After subsequently serving loan stints at Sestao River Club and SD Amorebieta (both in his native Basque Country), Orbegozo was released by the Lions on 26 May 2014. On 15 June he joined another reserve team, Getafe CF B.

Personal life

Orbegozo's older brother, Jon, is also a footballer and a forward. He played and scored regularly (over 200 games, over 50 goals) in the third tier with SD Lemona, Barakaldo CF and Amorebieta, but never featured in the professional divisions. Although they were opponents on several occasions, the siblings did not play together as seniors; Jon replaced Mikel in Amorebieta's squad in the summer of 2014.
