Club career

edit

Born in Sigüeiro, Oroso, A Coruña, Galicia, Rama represented Celta de Vigo and ED Xuventude Oroso as a youth. He made his senior debut with hometown side Sigüeiro FC on 7 September 2014, starting and scoring the equalizer in a 1–2 home loss against Cordeiro FC for the Primera Autonómica championship.

Rama subsequently moved to Deportivo de La Coruña; initially assigned to the youth setup, he featured sparingly with the reserves in Tercera División.[1] In August 2017, he joined Segunda División B side CCD Cerceda.[2]

On 25 January 2018, Rama signed a contract with CD Lugo, effective as of 1 July.[3] On 7 August, however, he was loaned to third division side CD Mirandés for one year.[4]

Rama was an undisputed starter for the Castilian-Leonese side, scoring a career-best six goals as the club achieved promotion to the second division, but suffering a serious knee injury in the play-offs.[5] On 24 July, he extended his contract with Lugo until 2022.[6]

Rama was declared fit to play only in January 2020,[7] and made his professional debut on 15 January by coming on as a second-half substitute for Álex López in a 0–1 away loss against Rayo Vallecano.[8]

Rama scored his first professional goal on 21 October 2020, netting his team's second in a 3–0 home win over Girona FC. On 31 January 2022, he left Lugo on a mutual agreement,[9] and signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with fellow second division side Real Oviedo just hours later.[10]

On 31 August 2023, Rama terminated his contract with the Carbayones,[11] and returned to Dépor on a two-year contract just hours later, now being assigned to the first team in Primera Federación.[12]
