Club career[]
Born in Vecindario, Province of Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Aridane finished his youth career with Deportivo de La Coruña, making his senior debut with the B team in Tercera División. He achieved promotion to the Segunda División B in 2007, being relegated two years later.
In the following years, Aridane did not settle with any team, representing Real Zaragoza B in the fourth tier and Universidad de Las Palmas CF and CD Leganés in the third. In January 2012, he signed with CD Tenerife in the latter league,[1] scoring 25 goals in 37 games in his second season (adding two from three appearances in the play-offs) to help the club return to the Segunda División after two years out.[2][3][4]
Aridane played his first professional match on 1 September 2013, featuring the last 27 minutes of a 0–2 away loss to CD Mirandés.[5] He scored his first goal seven days later, in a 2–2 home draw against FC Barcelona B.[6]
On 6 July 2015, aged 28, Aridane terminated his contract with Tenerife and moved abroad for the first time in his career, after agreeing to a two-year deal with Bangkok Glass F.C. in Thailand.[7] On 1 February of the following year he returned to his home country, signing a short-term deal with CD Mirandés in the second division.[8]
On 3 August 2016, Aridane joined Albacete Balompié, recently relegated to the third tier.[9] In his first season in Castilla-La Mancha, he contributed 17 goals in 42 matches as his team were promoted as champions,[10] including the extra time winner in the play-off semi-final against CD Atlético Baleares.[11]
Aridane competed in the Indian Super League from 2019 to 2021, representing Odisha FC[12] and Hyderabad FC.[13]
