Career

edit

Álvarez was born in Torredembarra, Tarragona, Catalonia,[1] and joined Gimnàstic de Tarragona's youth setup from hometown club UD Torredembarra.[2] On 5 July 2020, after finishing his formation, he was promoted to the farm team in Tercera División.[3]

Álvarez made his senior debut on 1 November 2020, coming on as a late substitute for Bernat Guiu in a 3–1 home loss against CE Europa.[4] He scored his first goal the following 2 April, netting Pobla's third in a 4–1 home routing of CF Igualada.[5]

Álvarez made his first team debut with Nàstic on 28 August 2022, starting and scoring his team's second in a 2–2 Primera Federación home draw against UD Logroñés.[6][7] On 13 October, after being regularly used in the main squad, he renewed his contract until 2025.[8]

On 24 July 2024, after being rarely used during the 2023–24 campaign, Álvarez renewed his link with Gimnàstic until 2026, and was immediately loaned to fellow third division team SD Tarazona for one year.[9]
