Football career
Brit was born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa. Having grown through the ranks of Real Sociedad, and having played as a senior with modest outfits, mostly in the Basque Country, he made his debuts in the top division with CA Osasuna, in 2002–03. Subsequently, he served some loan stints in Segunda División; after only 17 matches combined with the Navarrese's main squad, in two separate seasons, he was released in the 2006 summer.
In 2007–08, Brit was an important member in CD Numancia (having joined the Soria side the previous season) in their championship season, with subsequent promotion.
In late July 2009, he returned once again to the Basque region, joining Real Unión, freshly promoted to the second level. He experienced one of his best seasons as a professional, netting 14 league goals, but the club was immediately relegated back.
