Club career
Moncayola was born in Garínoain, Navarre, and was a CA Osasuna youth graduate having joined the club aged 10.[3] Not initially marked out as a top prospect, he made his senior debut with the farm team in the 2017–18 season, in Tercera División; during that campaign he also appeared with the reserves in Segunda División B, and spent the next season with them but at the lower Tercera level following relegation – they regained their Segunda B status at the first attempt.[4]
On 3 June 2019, Moncayola renewed his contract with the Pamplona club until 2021.[5] He made his professional – and La Liga – debut on 17 August 2019, starting in a 1–0 away defeat of CD Leganés.[6]
On 28 November 2019, Moncayola further extended his contract until 2024,[7] and scored his first professional goal three days later, netting his team's third in a 4–2 away defeat of RCD Espanyol.[8]
On 8 June 2021, Moncayola signed a new ten-year contract with Osasuna, running until June 2031.[3] Osasuna also confirmed that his release clause would be €22m (£18.9m) for the next two seasons, before being reduced to €20m for the eight following campaigns,[9] and €8m if the club was relegated.[3] In the 2021-22 season, he gained more experience with the red team, becoming the second player with the most minutes played on the squad.[10]
International career
On September 3, 2020, he made his debut with the Spanish under-21 team in a friendly match for the President of Spain against the North Macedonia national team.[11] Moncayola featured in all three of Spain's U-21 group stage fixtures at the European Championship in March 2021.[9][12] He missed the knock-out stage of the tournament in May 2021 due to testing positive for COVID-19.[9][13]
In July 2021, he was called up to play in the Tokyo Olympics.[14] In that tournament, he played four matches, coming on as a substitute.[15]
