Playing career
Born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Olaizola's first professional club was SD Eibar in his native Basque Country, in the second division. Subsequently, he played two seasons with Real Burgos CF, going on to suffer two consecutive drops and returning for a second spell with his previous team afterwards.
In 1995, Olaizola signed with RCD Mallorca, immediately becoming an undisputed starter as well as team captain and helping the Balearic Islands side to the 1998 Spanish Supercup against La Liga giants FC Barcelona, as well as a second place in the following year's UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. His first and only goal in the top flight – and overall – came on 17 December 2000, as he scored a last-minute equaliser at RC Celta de Vigo (2–2).
