Gaizka Campos Bahillo (born 16 May 1997) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for CF Intercity.

Club career[edit]

Campos was born in Barakaldo, Biscay, Basque Country, and joined Barakaldo CF's youth setup in 2015, from neighbouring SD Retuerto Sport.[1] On 23 July 2016, he was promoted to the main squad in Segunda División B, signing a two-year deal.[2]

Initially a backup to Txusta, Campos made his senior debut on 19 February 2017, starting in a 2–1 home win against Arenas Club de Getxo.[3] He finished the season as a starter, contributing with ten appearances.

On 4 July 2017, Campos signed a three-year contract with CD Numancia, as a third-choice behind Aitor Fernández and Munir and being assigned to the reserves in Tercera División.[4] After both departed the club, he was definitely promoted to the main squad and acted as a backup to new signing Juan Carlos.

Campos made his professional debut on 13 September 2018, starting in a 1–2 home loss against Sporting de Gijón, for the season's Copa del Rey.[5] He made his Segunda División debut the following 26 April, playing the full 90 minutes in a home defeat to Deportivo de La Coruña for the same scoreline, as Juan Carlos was suspended.

On 5 July 2019, Campos signed a two-year contract with Real Valladolid B after terminating his previous deal with the Soria club.[6] On 7 July 2021, he moved to another reserve team, Celta de Vigo B in Primera División RFEF.[7]

On 6 July 2022, Campos agreed to a two-year contract with Real Zaragoza in the second division,[8] but the move was declared void just hours later, after the discovery of offensive tweets about the club made in 2013.[9] Thirteen days later, he signed for CF Intercity in the third tier.[10]
