Gorka Patricio Luariz-Ayerdi Rona (born 20 December 1992) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for Tercera Federación club Pasaia. Born in Spain, he played for the Equatorial Guinea national team.
Luariz was born in Zaragoza, Aragon to a Basque father and an Equatoguinean mother, a Bubi from Malabo. He spent his childhood in Sangüesa, Vitoria-Gasteiz and San Sebastián.[2]
He was called up by the Basque Country national team at youth levels.
Having developed at Antiguoko, he was signed by Athletic Bilbao in 2010, but suffered a cruciate ligament knee injury in his maiden campaign in their youth system and was released after an unremarkable loan with the reserve team of Real Unión.[2]
Since then he moved around several teams, most located in the Basque Country, in the third and fourth tiers of Spanish football.[2]
Luariz made his national team debut as a substitute against Madagascar in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualification.
At age 17, Luariz had a sentimental problem which caused him to lose all his body hair.[2] Luariz's middle name, Patricio, is a tribute to his grandfather.[2]
