Club career
Born in Manresa, Barcelona, Catalonia, Epitié played all of his senior career in Spain, but never appeared in higher than the third division.
He represented CE Manresa, FC Andorra, CD La Oliva, ACD San Marcial, CD Logroñés, Jerez Industrial CF, Algeciras CF, AD Mar Menor-San Javier, CF Peralada, UD Poblense, CD Binéfar, CF Vilanova (sharing teams with sibling Juan in the latter), CD Montcada, CF Igualada, UE Rubí, CE Europa and UE Castelldefels.
International career
As many players born in Spain (Benjamín Zarandona, Rodolfo Bodipo, Javier Balboa, etc.), Epitié chose to represent Equatorial Guinea through ancestry – his father hails from that country, while his mother is Spanish.
He made his senior debut in 2006.
Personal life
Epitié's older brother, Juan, was also a footballer – and a forward. He too spent most of his professional career in Spain, and also appeared for Equatorial Guinea internationally.
