Ismael Urzaiz Aranda (born October 7, 1971 in Tudela, Navarre) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a forward and is currently playing for Ajax. He has also played for Spain and the Euskadi XI. Urzaiz began his career as a youth player with Real Madrid. Despite being a successful youth international, he failed to establish himself in the first team and spent most of his time at Real playing for Real Madrid B or out on loan. After leaving Real in 1993, he gained a reputation as a journeyman forward with only a modest strike-rate. However in 1996, after a successful spell at RCD Espanyol, he signed for Athletic Bilbao, his seventh La Liga club, and was called up by Spain. >> By WikiPedia
