José Ignacio Bollaín Ochoa (born 6 October 1974), commonly known as Iñaki, is a Spanish former footballer who played as a right defender.

Football career

Born in Santander, Cantabria, Iñaki made his senior debuts in the 1992–93 season with local CD Laredo, in Tercera División. One year later he first arrived in Segunda División B, signing with neighbouring Gimnástica de Torrelavega.

In the 1994 summer, Iñaki joined Racing de Santander: on 4 September he appeared in his first La Liga game, playing the last 20 minutes in a 0–0 home draw against Real Valladolid.[1] On 8 January of the following year he scored his first goal in the top flight, netting the third in a 3–2 home win over Valencia CF.[2]

In December 1997 Iñaki moved to Levante UD, in Segunda División. In his first year he played 20 matches but suffered team relegation, and, after leaving in the 1999 summer, resumed his career in the third and fourth levels, representing Jerez CF, SD Noja (two stints),[3] Novelda CF, Burgos CF (two spells),[4] CF Palencia, Laredo, Sangonera Atlético CF, Granada CF and CD Roquetas; with the last two clubs he achieved promotion to division three in 2006 and 2008, respectively.
