Club Career

Born in Irun, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Merquelanz joined Real Sociedad's youth setup in 2012, from Antiguoko. He was promoted to the reserves on 23 June 2014, and made his senior debut on 31 August by coming on as a second-half substitute for Pablo Hervias in a 0–3 Segunda Division B away loss against CD Tudelano.

Merquelanz scored his first senior goal on 20 September 2015, netting the second in a 5–0 away routing of CD Mensajero. Roughly one year later, he scored a hat-trick in a 4–0 home thrashing of Gernika Club, and finished the 2016–17 campaign with ten goals in 36 matches.

Merquelanz renewed his contract until 2019 on 17 May 2017, but suffered a serious knee injury in December, which kept him out for the remainder of the campaign. The following 12 January, he extended his contract until 2020.
