Perspective

Barakaldo and Athletic

Born in Barakaldo, Biscay, Basque Country, Serantes graduated from Barakaldo CF's youth system after spells at Santutxu FC and Athletic Bilbao. He made his debut as a senior in 2008, while on loan at amateurs SD Deusto.[2]

Serantes subsequently returned to Barakaldo in June 2009, and spent the following two seasons as a backup to Igor Etxebarrieta. On 19 January 2011, he signed a two-year contract with his former club Athletic to be made effective in July,[3] being assigned to the reserves.[4]

On 24 July 2013, Serantes returned to his hometown club in a season-long loan deal.[5] He appeared in all Segunda División B matches during his tenure, and was subsequently released by Athletic on 26 May 2014.[6]

Lugo

On 9 July 2014, Serrantes signed for Segunda División's CD Lugo.[7] On 1 September, he was loaned to another second-tier team, CD Leganés, for a year.[8]

Serantes played his first match as a professional on 23 November 2014, starting in a 1–0 away loss against CD Mirandés.[9]

Leganés

Serantes terminated his contract with the Galicians on 2 July 2015,[10] and joined Leganés on a two-year deal a day later.[11] He featured in all 42 games in the first season in his second spell, helping the club to reach La Liga for the first time in its 87-year history and finishing second in the Ricardo Zamora Trophy in the process.[12][13]

Serantes made his debut in the Spanish top flight on 22 August 2016, keeping a clean sheet in a 1–0 away win over RC Celta de Vigo.[14] On 8 September, he was named the La Liga Player of the Month.[15] Shortly after, during the first half of a league match at RCD Espanyol, he suffered a serious knee injury, and was sidelined for the rest of the campaign.[16][17]

Later career

On 30 December 2018, Serantes moved abroad for the first time in his career, signing for Japan's Avispa Fukuoka after terminating his contract with Leganés.[18] He returned to Spain and its second division on 1 February 2021, on a six-month deal at CD Tenerife.[19]

On 7 August 2021, Serantes joined Primera División RFEF side UD Logroñés on a two-year contract.[20] He went back to Japan in December 2022, with J3 League club FC Imabari.[21]

Serantes moved to fellow third-tier FC Gifu in January 2025.[22]

International career

Uncapped by Spain at any level, Serantes made his debut for the unofficial Basque Country team on 12 October 2018, in a 4–2 win over Venezuela at the Mendizorrotza Stadium. He played the second half in place of Asier Riesgo.[23]
