Football career[edit]

Born in Estella, Navarre, Díaz joined CA Osasuna's youth setup in 2007 at the age of 13, from CD Izarra. He made his senior debut with the reserves on 9 September 2012, coming on as a second-half substitute for Luis Ali in a 1–4 Segunda División B away loss against Real Zaragoza B.[1]

Díaz scored his first senior goal on 26 January 2014, in a 3–0 away win against CD Murchante in the Tercera División. He finished the campaign with a career-best 18 goals for the B-side, playing a key unit in their promotion back to the third division.

On 11 September 2016, Díaz scored a hat-trick in a 4–2 home win against Arandina CF.[2] The following 13 June, after the first team's relegation from La Liga, he was definitely promoted to the main squad after extending his contract until 2018.[3]

Díaz made his professional debut on 20 September 2017, starting in a 0–1 away loss against Cádiz CF in the season's Copa del Rey.[4] The following 5 January he extended his contract until 2020, but was demoted to the B-side in the third level.[5]

On 21 August 2018, Díaz was loaned to CD Mirandés of the third division for a year.[6] The deal was terminated on 31 January 2019, and Díaz was instead loaned to Real Murcia.[7]
