Club career

edit

García was born in Granada, Andalusia. A product of Málaga CF's youth ranks, he made his debut with the first team on 13 January 2010, in a Copa del Rey match against Getafe CF (5–1 away loss, 6–3 on aggregate).[1] He spent nearly four full seasons with the reserves in the Tercera División, also playing six Segunda División B matches in 2006–07 and scoring twice[2] in a relegation-ending campaign.

In the summer of 2010, after failing to appear in the league for Málaga during his four-year senior spell, García signed with CD Leganés of division three.[3] He finished the season with another side in that tier, Ontinyent CF, then moved to CD San Roque de Lepe in the ensuing off-season.[4]

García joined FC Kairat in Kazakhstan on 12 July 2012.[5] One year later, after a brief stint in his country with lowly Loja CD,[6] he moved abroad again, signing with IF Birkebeineren in Norway's third division alongside compatriot Jorge Pina.[7] In July 2015 he transferred to another team in the latter competition, Raufoss IL,[8] from Auckland City FC in the New Zealand Football Championship.[9]

After another year in the Norwegian third division, now with Egersunds IK, García returned to his homeland and signed with SD Leioa also in that tier.[10] For 2018–19, he agreed to a contract at UD Melilla.[11]
