Early life
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.
Club career
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.
Since then he moved around several teams, most located in the Basque Country, in the third and fourth tiers of Spanish football.
International career
Luariz made his national team debut as a substitute against Madagascar in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualification.
Personal life
At age 17, Luariz had a sentimental problem which caused him to lose all his body hair. Luariz's middle name, Patricio, is a tribute to his grandfather.
