Arribas helped Rayo B to promote to the third tier in 2009–10, moving to the first team shortly after – in the Segunda División – and being first choice (38 games out of 42) as the latter returned to La Liga after eight years. In the 2011–12 season he started in all of his 34 league appearances as the capital outskirts side narrowly avoided relegation, scoring in a 2–3 home loss against Athletic Bilbao on 28 January 2012.[2]
Arribas signed a four-year contract at Deportivo de La Coruña on 24 June 2015.[13][14] His first league match for them took place on 30 August, when he featured the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 draw at Valencia CF,[15] and he scored twice in his first year[16][17] to help to a 15th-place finish.
UNAM
On 8 December 2017, after only three league appearances during the first part of the season as well as some run-ins with teammates,[18] the 28-year-old Arribas moved abroad for the first time in his career and joined Club Universidad Nacional in the Mexican Liga MX.[19]
He scored his only league goal on 4 February 2018, helping the hosts beat Tigres UANL 2–0.[20]
Oviedo
On 30 July 2019, Arribas returned to Spain after agreeing to a three-year deal with Real Oviedo of the second division.[21]

Arribas' younger brother Jesús is a football manager, and worked solely at Rayo Majadahonda.[22] In September 2019, while still an active professional, he became the majority shareholder in first club Rayo Majadahonda's Sociedad Anónima Deportiva.[23]
