In the course of her fourth season in the reserve ranks, Oihane made her first-team debut in a league match againstAtlético Madrid on 5 January 2019.[2] Overall she made five appearances and one goal in the senior squad that season.

In 2020, she signed a new contract running until 2023.[3]

In August 2021, Oihane won theBasque Cup with Athletic; after beatingSD Eibar 4–0 in the semifinals, they won the final 2–1 againstDeportivo Alavés.[4] Athletic had previously finished the Spanish championship in a disappointing eleventh place, and fared only slightly better in the two subsequent campaigns (seventh in 2021–22, tenth in 2022–23). They reached the Copa semi-finals again in 2023, but this time lost 4–0 toReal Madrid. By now established as a regular on the right flank, Oihane had made 109 competitive appearances, scoring three goals, for Athletic by the time of departing the club in the summer of 2023.
