Iñaki Muñoz Oroz (born 2 July 1978 in Pamplona, Navarre) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for CD Izarra mainly as a defensive midfielder.
Club career
Except for a season-long loan to CD Toledo in the third division, Muñoz played ten senior seasons with hometown's CA Osasuna, the first and the second sides combined. He made his La Liga debut with the former on 23 December 2001, in a 0–1 home loss against Athletic de Bilbao.
Muñoz went on to become an important first-team member with the Navarrese, appearing in 30 games during 2005–06 as the club finished fourth in the league and qualified to the UEFA Champions League, while scoring five goals in as many wins (notably the winners at Deportivo de La Coruña and Atlético de Madrid[1][2]). In the previous season's Copa del Rey, he netted five times in eight matches to help Osasuna reach the final of the competition, notably once in a 3–1 quarterfinal home win against Sevilla FC (4–3 on aggregate).[3]
For 2007–08 Muñoz switched west, moving to Basque neighbours Athletic Bilbao. He appeared sparingly during his first season, and even less in the second and third campaigns (his 2009–10 output consisted of 30 minutes against Deportivo, in the last matchday).
In the 2010 summer, aged 32, free agent Muñoz signed with FC Cartagena in the second level.[4]
International career
Muñoz played three times for Euskadi and three for the unofficial Navarre autonomous football team.
