Club career


Born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Ugarte was brought up in local giants Real Sociedad's youth system, but only appeared once for the first team during his two-year spell as a senior.[2] Released in 2002, he would also be very unfortunate at Basque neighbours SD Eibar – one match played in Segunda División.

In the following years, Ugarte played with Segunda División B sides Real Unión and Barakaldo CF, also in his native region.[3] In early 2004, after an unsuccessful trial at Wycombe Wanderers,[4] he moved to Dorchester Town until he was acquired by Wrexham, scoring his first goal for the latter in the Football League Trophy quarter-final tie against local rivals Chester City; he finished the year as that competition's top scorer, notably netting in the final against Southend United (2–0).[5]

Ugarte scored regularly during his time with the Welsh club, but this was not enough to avoid relegation to Football League Two after it had suffered a ten-point deduction for entering administration. On 5 March 2005, he put five past Hartlepool United in a 6–4 away win.[6] This remains the record for most away goals scored by a single player in the English professional league.[7]

Ugarte then joined another team in Football League One, Crewe Alexandra, but injuries prevented him from ever starting a game for them, also continuing to affect him during two loan returns to Wrexham. Despite his condition, the Dragons re-signed him in November 2006, but he only made three official appearances over two seasons, retiring at the age of 27.[8]


Personal life


Ugarte was best friends with Xabi Alonso, who also emerged through Real Sociedad's youth ranks.[9][10]
