Playing career

edit

Falcón was born in Toledo, Castilla–La Mancha. After rough starts in Madrid, only appearing for Atlético's B and C teams, he joined another club in the city, CD Leganés, but appeared very rarely during a sole season. Subsequently, staying in the Segunda División, he stabilised his career, going on to spend five campaigns with Ciudad de Murcia – they were renamed Granada 74 CF for 2007–08.[1]

Following Granada's 2008 relegation, Falcón signed for FC Cartagena of Segunda División B, helping them promote in his first year.[2] He contributed 29 league games the following campaign, as the Murcia side overachieved for a final fifth place.[3]

In July 2010, aged 31, Falcón returned to the third tier after moving to Real Oviedo.[4] Two years later, he signed with his hometown club CD Toledo in the Tercera División.[5]

Coaching career

edit

Falcón retired at the end of the 2012–13 season – in which Toledo won promotion – and became assistant manager. When Onésimo Sánchez was dismissed in January 2018, he was named head coach.[6] In June, after being unable to prevent relegation, he was given a job in the club's academy.[7]
