Maguregui made his professional debuts in 1952 at the age of 18, with Basque Country giants Athletic Bilbao. After a poor first season in La Liga (12 games, no goals), he became a very important first-team unit, helping it to the 1956 national championship and three Copa del Rey trophies in four years.
In 1963, after amassing official totals of and 235 matches and 42 goals, 29-year old Maguregui left Athletic, retiring after spells with Sevilla FC (two years), RCD Español and Recreativo de Huelva. He gained seven caps for Spain in slightly less than two years, scoring in his debut on 19 June 1955, a friendly 3–0 win in Switzerland.

After managing his hometown club in amateur football, Maguregui moved to Sestao Sport, also in his native region. In 1972, the 38-year old was appointed at Racing de Santander, achieving two top flight promotions with the Cantabrians, and remaining five years with the team.
Maguregui then managed to lead two more teams to division one promotions, Celta de Vigo in 1978 and lowly AD Almería in 1979, overachieving with the latter in the following season (ninth-place finish), which prompted his signing with a club he had represented as a player, Español.
After three average seasons in Catalonia (ranking between 9-13), Maguregui returned to Racing, helping it to top flight promotion in his first year, and going on to remain with the club a total of 9 years, being the manager with more games at its service. He worked with Celta de Vigo in the 1987–88 season, also in the first division, being dismissed in round 30 due to the surmounting pressure after his agreement with Atlético Madrid for the following campaign.
Maguregui was fired by the Colchoneros in October 1988 after a 3–0 home win against Cádiz CF, being one of four coaches used by the club during the season (elusive Jesús Gil was the chairman), which saw the team finish in fourth place. He concluded the campaign with fellow first-divisioner Real Murcia, which suffered relegation.
Maguregui's last job was with Celta, with the coach arriving in Galicia late into the 1989–90 season - which ended in top flight relegation - and leaving 18 games into the following campaign.
