Club career
After graduating from Nacional's youth system, Amondarain was loaned to Progreso in 2012 summer. Progreso also kept an agreement with Nacional by receiving a part of the sale if the player was sold.[1]
Amondarain made his professional debut on 7 October 2012, in a 0–2 away defeat against Fénix.[2] He finished the season with 18 appearances, and returned to Nacional.
On 30 August 2013, Cardiff City confirmed the signing of the free agent Amondarain after an impressive trial period earlier in the summer.[3] He signed a four-year deal with the club after a one month trial basis.
