Career
[edit]Born in Miranda de Ebro, Burgos, Castile and León, Ortiz joined Deportivo Alavés' youth sides from hometown side CD Mirandés in 2019.[1] On 11 April 2022, while still a youth, he renewed his contract with the club until 2025.[2]
Ortiz made his senior debut with the reserves on 30 April 2022, coming on as a late substitute for Stephane Keller in a 2–2 Tercera División RFEF away draw against Urduliz FT, as his side was already promoted. Definitely promoted to the B-side ahead of the 2022–23 Segunda Federación, he scored his first senior goal on 12 February 2023, netting the fourth in a 4–0 away routing of CD Arnedo.[3]
Ortiz made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 26 May 2024, replacing fellow youth graduate Javi López in a 1–1 away draw against UD Las Palmas.[4][5] On 23 June of the following year, he moved to another reserve team, Villarreal CF B in Primera Federación.[6]
