Club career



Barcelona B


Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Sánchez represented several clubs as a youth, including FC Barcelona from ages 7 to 9, returning to La Masia in 2007.[3] In the 2009–10 season he made his professional debut in the Segunda División B, contributing 22 matches (one goal)[4] as the B team returned to Segunda División after an 11-year absence.[5]

Mainly a defensive midfielder, Sánchez was reconverted into a right-back by manager Luis Enrique, a former Barcelona player.[6] He was also called by Pep Guardiola for the first team's pre-season in 2010.[7]


1860 Munich


On 11 June 2014, both Sánchez and teammate Edu Bedia signed for TSV 1860 Munich of the German 2. Bundesliga.[8] He made his league debut in the season opener, a 3–2 away defeat to 1. FC Kaiserslautern,[9] and scored his only goal on 26 September to help to a 2–0 home win against SpVgg Greuther Fürth.[10]

Sánchez was deemed surplus to requirements by manager Torsten Fröhling at the start of the 2015–16 campaign,[11] and on 31 August he was loaned to Elche CF in the Spanish second tier.[12] He scored once, the penalty winner in a 2–1 home victory over CA Osasuna on 8 November.[13] Shortly after his return to his parent club, his contract was mutually annulled.[14]


Sporting Kansas City


On 13 January 2017, Sánchez moved to Major League Soccer side Sporting Kansas City on a two-year deal.[15] He played on 20 September as the team won the U.S. Open Cup with a 2–1 final victory over the New York Red Bulls;[16] days later, he earned a U.S. green card which qualified him as a domestic player for MLS roster purposes.[17]

Sánchez was named to the All-Star team at the end of the 2018 season in recognition of his play, notably ranking in the top five in nearly every passing and midfield statistic or metric.[18] In 2019, he figured in Kansas City's run to the CONCACAF Champions League semi-finals, scoring in knockout games against Deportivo Toluca F.C. and C.A. Independiente de La Chorrera.[19][20] On 29 September that year, he was sent off while conceding a late penalty from which the Portland Timbers drew 2–2 at Children's Mercy Park.[21]

In August 2021, Sánchez took an assistant coaching role with the under-14 side as part of his B License course in the U.S. Soccer Coaching Education program.[22] Following the year's campaign, his contract option was declined.[23]


Los Angeles FC


On 12 January 2022, Sánchez signed a two-year contract with Los Angeles FC.[24] He scored his first goal on 2 April in a 4–2 win at Orlando City SC,[25] the only one of a season in which his team won the Supporters' Shield;[26] he missed just one game, as a result of a red card in a 2–1 loss at the San Jose Earthquakes on 20 August.[27][28] On 5 November, he scored the decisive goal of the penalty shootout win over the Philadelphia Union to secure the team's first MLS Cup.[29]


Personal life


Sánchez's older brother Yuri was on the youth ranks of UE Cornellà at the same time as him, as an attacking midfielder. Having failed to join him as a fellow professional, he became an economist after graduating from the University of Barcelona.[16]
