Club career

Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Aridai began his career with hometown club Universidad de Las Palmas CF, going on to spend three full seasons in the third division with the team. In June 2010 he joined RCD Mallorca, being assigned to the B side in the same level.[1]

On 12 July 2012, Aridai signed a two-year contract with Girona FC of division two.[2] He made his league debut on 18 August against CE Sabadell FC, playing 11 minutes in a 0–0 home draw.[3]

Aridai moved to Real Betis on 25 January 2013, initially being part of the reserves,[4] but subsequently moved to fellow league team CE L'Hospitalet in the summer. After scoring ten goals for the latter, he agreed to a deal at second-tier Sabadell.[5]

On 27 January 2015, Aridai terminated his contract[6] and signed with Huracán Valencia CF of the third division hours later.[7] That December, amidst financial problems that would lead to his team being expelled, he quit and moved across the city to Valencia CF Mestalla in the same league.[8]

On 5 July 2017, after scoring a career-best 15 goals during the campaign, Aridai signed for Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.[9] The following 18 January, he moved to RCD Mallorca in the third tier.[10] After two consecutive play-off promotions to La Liga, he made his debut in the competition on 29 September 2019, shortly after turning 31; he replaced Lago Junior for the final 13 minutes of a 2–0 loss at Deportivo Alavés.[11]

Aridai returned to his native city on 13 January 2020, with the free agent joining UD Las Palmas on a two-and-a-half-year deal.[12]
