Football career
De la Bella started his career at local UDA Gramenet. Other than with this club, he only played for B-teams in various parts of the country in three seasons, on loan and after being released (in the 2008–09 season, for example, he played with Sevilla FC's reserves in Segunda División, being relegated).
In the 2009 summer, de la Bella signed with Real Sociedad in the same category, as a replacement for Athletic Bilbao-bound Xabier Castillo; during the league campaign, he was also first-choice, but achieving La Liga promotion this time.
