Club career

[edit]

Born in Épila, Province of Zaragoza, Aragon, Ripa started his career with Real Zaragoza's reserves.[1] He scored 11 Tercera División goals in the 2006–07 season, but they could not achieve promotion in the playoffs in spite of finishing the regular season in first position.

In 2007, Ripa signed with Segunda División B club SD Huesca on loan. He won promotion in his first year,[2] then made his professional debut in Segunda División on 7 September 2008 by coming on as a late substitute in the 1–1 away draw against Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[3]

Ripa started the 2009–10 campaign back in the third level, with Orihuela CF. During the winter transfer window, however, he returned to the division above after Elche CF paid his €30.000 buyout clause.[4] He played 25 matches in 2010–11, helping his team to the fourth position in the standings and the subsequent playoffs.[5]

On 20 June 2011, Ripa signed a two-year deal at CD Numancia as a free agent.[6] He made 11 second-tier appearances in his first season, as understudy to Nano.[7]

Ripa left the Nuevo Estadio Los Pajaritos in June 2019, as the 34-year-old's contract expired.[8][9] He then returned to his native region, joining amateurs SD Tarazona.[10][11]
