Club career

edit

Born in Santa Cruz de La Palma, La Palma, Canary Islands, Cacho was a CD Mensajero youth graduate. He made his first team debut on 23 September 2018, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–2 Tercera División away draw against Atlético Tacoronte.

On 17 November 2018, Cacho moved to UD Las Palmas and returned to the youth setup.[1] He returned to Mensa in the following year, and started to feature more regularly until renewing his contract with the club on 5 July 2021.[2]

On 20 July 2022, Cacho signed for CD Tenerife and was initially assigned to the reserves in Tercera Federación.[3] He made his professional debut the following 25 March, replacing Aitor Sanz late into a 1–0 Segunda División away loss against Deportivo Alavés;[4] by doing so, he became the first player from his native island to play for the main squad since 1989.[5]
