Club career

Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Nacho graduated with CD Numancia's youth setup in 2012, after a stint at UD Logroñés. He was subsequently released, and joined SD Almazán in Tercera División.

After scoring a career-best 17 goals in the 2014–15 campaign, Nacho moved back to Numancia, being assigned to the reserves also in the fourth level.[1] On 23 August 2015, after appearing the entire pre-season with the main squad,[2] he made his professional debut, coming on as a second-half substitute for Natalio in a 6–3 Segunda División home win against CD Tenerife.[3]

On 3 November 2015 Nacho signed a new two-year deal with the Rojillos, after already being permanently used in the main squad.[4] He scored his first goal as a professional on 22 May of the following year, netting the first in a 2–3 away loss against CA Osasuna.

On 8 June 2016 Nacho renewed with Numancia until 2019,[5] being definitely assigned to the main squad in the following campaign.
