Football career

A product of CA Osasuna's youth ranks, Santamaría was transferred to UD Las Palmas in the 2006 summer. In the Canary Islands, he spent his first two seasons with the B-side, making his debut with the first team on 23 February 2008, in a match against Celta de Vigo in which he saved a penalty kick, helping to a 1–0 home victory.

In the summer of 2009, Santamaría was loaned to Málaga CF. During the season, he played as backup to also newly-signed Gustavo Munúa, appearing in the club's all four Spanish Cup games.

On 12 August 2010, after rescinding his Las Palmas link, Santamaría joined Girona FC in the second division, replacing Albert Jorquera who retired earlier in the summer.[1]

Personal

Santamaría's uncle, Roberto Santamaría Calavia, was also a footballer and a goalkeeper. He too represented Osasuna and Málaga, in the 80's/90's.
