Football career

Arroyo was born in Bilbao, Biscay. After passing through the various youth ranks at local Athletic Bilbao, he would make two appearances with the first team: the first arrived on 23 April 2006 as he played five minutes in a 0–3 home loss against Valencia CF; the other only came two years later, also in La Liga, in a 1–4 defeat at Sevilla FC.

Released by Athletic in the 2009 summer, Arroyo joined Basque neighbours Barakaldo CF, in the third division. He continued competing in that level in the following years, in representation of a host of clubs.
