Born in Ibiza, Balearic Islands, Sánchez played for the youth sides of SCR Peña Deportiva, scoring in a regular basis for their Juvenil side during the 2021–22 season, while also playing for the B-team. In April 2022, he also had a trial at Granada CF.[1][2]

Sánchez scored his first professional goal on 20 May 2023, netting the winner in a 1–0 home success over Real Zaragoza.[5]
