Club career
Born in Bilbao, Basque Country, Azkorra emerged through local giants Athletic Bilbao's youth system, but could only amass five first team appearances – all in the 2004–05 season – after having scored prolifically with the club's B and feeder clubs. He made his La Liga debut on 3 October 2004, playing 25 minutes in a 1–3 away loss against Getafe CF.
Released in the 2005 January transfer window, Azkorra resumed his career in the second division, with Recreativo de Huelva, CD Numancia, Albacete Balompié and UD Salamanca. In the latter, in the 2008–09 campaign, he reunited with former Athletic youth teammate Mikel Dañobeitia.
Azkorra resumed his career in the second and third divisions during the following years, representing CD Lugo, Deportivo Alavés, CD Guadalajara, Hércules CF, Gimnàstic de Tarragona and Real Murcia.
