Club career[]

Larrea has always played for L.D.U. Quito. He plays as a central midfielder and was often used as a starter whenever Patricio Urrutia can't play. He played in the 2008 Copa Sudamericana as a replacement for Urrutia against Boca Juniors. Liga went on to lose to them 5-1 aggregate.

In the 2008 FIFA Club World Cup, Larrea made two substitute appearances. In the semi-final encounter with Pachuca, he came on in the last two minutes of the game. He provided an assist for Reinaldo Navia but Navia could not score the goal.^[1] He also came on in the last minutes of the final.

In 2009, Larrea began having a more starting role in the squad. He scored his first goal in a 1–1 tie against Emelec in the Ecuadorian Copa Credife. The impressive goal was made from 30 meters out and was named the goal of the week by Ecuadorian newspaper El Comercio.^[2]
