Gorka Larrea García (born 7 April 1984) is a Spanish footballer who plays for American club Indy Eleven as a midfielder.
Club career
Larrea was born San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa. A product of Real Sociedad's youth system, he first appeared for its main squad on 23 May 2004, playing 20 minutes in a 4–1 away win against Real Madrid (his only game of the season. He added a further three late substitute appearances in the following campaign).[1] For 2006–07, he was loaned to Segunda División club UD Almería, playing an important role in the Andalusians' first-ever La Liga promotion.
In July 2007, Larrea returned to the Basques, who now competed in the second level. He appeared in only nine matches during the season, being subsequently released and joining Levante UD also in the category.

On 11 June 2014, Larrea signed with Major League Soccer's Montreal Impact after training for a month with the club.[5]
