Club career

Born in Salamanca, Castile and León, Olabe represented Real Sociedad as a youth. After making his debut as a senior with the farm team in the 2014–15 season in Tercera División, he was promoted to the reserves in June 2015.

On 4 January 2016, Olabe terminated his contract with Sanse and immediately joined Villarreal CF's C-side in the fourth division.[1] On 31 July, he moved to another reserve team, Atlético Madrid B in the same league.[2]

Olabe made his competitive debut with Atlético Madrid on 30 November 2016, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Ángel Correa in a 6–0 away rout of CD Guijuelo in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey.[3] At the end of the campaign, he also helped the second team promote to Segunda División B.[4]

On 31 August 2018, Olabe was loaned to Extremadura UD of Segunda División for one year.[5] He was a regular starter during his spell,[6] as they easily avoided relegation.[7]

On 7 July 2019, Olabe signed a four-year deal with La Liga's SD Eibar,[8] but was loaned to second level club Albacete Balompié on 4 August.[9] The following 22 January his loan was cut short, and he immediately moved back to Extremadura also in a temporary deal.[10]

Personal life

Olabe's father, also named Roberto, was also a footballer. A goalkeeper, he notably represented UD Salamanca before moving to coaching duties.[11]
