Club career

Born in Ondarroa, Biscay, Basque Country, Aulestia finished his youth career with SD Eibar, and made his senior debut with their B-team in the 2000–01 season. He played in Segunda División B but also in Tercera División in the following years, representing UD Pájara Playas de Jandía, Bilbao Athletic, Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa, Real Oviedo[1] and Cádiz CF.[2]

On 30 July 2013, Aulestia signed with Segunda División club Hércules CF.[3] On 11 September, aged 32, he appeared in his first professional match, a 2–0 home win over Real Murcia in the second round of the Copa del Rey.[4] His first league appearance took place on 9 November in another victory for the hosts, now against UD Las Palmas (2–1).[5]

Aulestia returned to the third level after leaving the Estadio José Rico Pérez at the end of the campaign, retiring well past his 30s.[6][7]
