Career
editBorn in Villanueva del Ariscal, Seville, Andalusia, Vargas represented UD Tomares and Córdoba CF as a youth. He made his senior debut with the latter's reserves on 26 August 2018, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–0 Tercera División home win over UD Los Barrios.[1]
In July 2019, after a further two appearances with Córdoba B, Vargas moved to Extremadura UD and returned to the youth setup. He started to feature regularly for their B-team during the 2020–21 season, before starting to feature in the main squad in September 2021, due to their financial problems.[2]
On 11 January 2022, Vargas moved to another reserve team, Atlético Albacete in Tercera División RFEF.[3] He made his first team debut on 12 November, coming on as an extra-time substitute for fellow debutant Borja Marchante in a 3–0 away win over CD Huétor Tájar, for the season's Copa del Rey.[4]
Vargas made his professional debut with Alba on 28 January 2024, replacing Agus Medina late into a 2–1 Segunda División away loss to Burgos CF.[5]
