Kike Burgos

Born in Barakaldo, Basque Country, Burgos was a youth product of local giants Athletic Bilbao. He played 317 games in the Segunda División over the course of nine seasons, with Polideportivo Ejido (five years), Bilbao Athletic and RCD Mallorca (two apiece); during his spell at the latter, he took part in most of the matches in 1996–97 in a promotion to La Liga via the playoffs against Rayo Vallecano, but subsequently lost his place to Carlos Roa. Burgos retired in June 2007, at the age of 36. He later worked as assistant at Villarreal CF and Real Murcia CF under Julio Velázquez, being goalkeeper coach at Real Betis with the same manager but dismissed after a quarrel with Antonio Adán.
