He came through at his hometown club Real Betis before moving to VFL Wolfsburg in 2019. He joined NAC Breda on loan in July 2022 and made his debut in the Eerste Divisie on 5 August 2022, in a 1-0 win against Helmond Sport.[2]
He was born and raised in Seville, Spain but qualifies for Ireland through his mother who is from County Clare. He would visit Ireland every summer with his family and chose to represent Ireland from U15 level, and this continued through to his playing at U19 level for Ireland and then call ups to the Irish U21 squad. He has not, however, ruled out playing for the country of his birth at a later date.[3][4][5]
