Undabarrena became a regular starter for the Burgaleses, and helped in their promotion to Segunda División in 2021 as team captain with two goals in 25 appearances (play-offs included).[5] He made his professional debut at the age of 28 on 15 August of that year, starting in a 0–1 away draw against Sporting de Gijón.[6]

On 4 July 2022, Undabarrena signed a two-year deal with Primera Federación newcomers CF Intercity.[7]
