Career

edit

Born in Museros, Valencian Community, Alcaina was a youth product of CF Torre Levante. He made his senior debut at the age of 16 on 16 April 2017, playing the last 15 minutes in a 2–0 Tercera División home win over CD Segorbe.

In 2018, after overcoming a knee injury which kept him out for three months,[1] Alcaina moved to Levante UD and returned to the youth setup. On 29 August 2019, after featuring rarely with the reserves in Segunda División B, he was loaned to fellow third division side CD Castellón, for one year.[2]

Upon returning, Alcaina was regularly used with the B-side before departing on 14 June 2022.[3] On 9 July, he signed for Primera Federación side CD Alcoyano.[4]

Alcaina scored nine goals in the 2022–23 campaign, as the Blanquiblaus narrowly avoided relegation. On 30 January 2024, he moved to fellow third division side Deportivo de La Coruña on a two-and-a-half-year deal,[5] and contributed with three goals in 13 appearances as the club achieved promotion to Segunda División.

On 30 August 2024, Alcaina was loaned to Real Murcia CF in the third division, for one year.[6]
