Jauregizar began his senior career with Bermeo in 2018. He moved to Athletic Bilbao's youth academy on 1 April 2021.[1] In 2022, he started playing with their third team Basconia. He was promoted to the second team, Bilbao Athletic, for the 2023–24 season.[2] In October 2023, he began training with the senior Athletic Bilbao squad after injuries to some of their regulars.[3] On 20 November 2023, he extended his contract with the club until 2028.[4]
Jauregizar made his professional debut for Athletic Bilbao as a substitute (replacing his friend and fellow former Bermeo player Unai Gómez) in a 3–0 Copa del Rey win over CD Cayón on 7 December 2023.[5] Nine days later he again came off the bench for his debut in La Liga, a 2–0 home victory over Atlético Madrid.[6]
