Wang was born in Cuenca, Spain, and started his career with Móstoles.[2] He was bought by newly-Chinese-owned Jumilla in 2016, but as they did not have a youth academy set up yet, he was loaned immediately to fellow Spanish side Real Murcia, before joining Josep María Gené on loan the following season.[3] During this period he was included in The Guardian's "Next Generation 2017".[4] Wang signed for English Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers in January 2019, and was immediately loaned to Portuguese side Sporting.[2][5][6][7][8][9] After failing to secure a place in the Sporting CP youth team, having appeared seven times on the bench, he was recalled from loan. However, he was unable to obtain a UK work visa, and was sent back to Spain with Granollers.[10][11]
Having only made three substitute appearances with Granollers, Wang was again recalled, and this time sent to China to join China League One side Nantong Zhiyun.[12] After one appearance for Nantong Zhiyun, Wang officially joined the club in February 2021 on a permanent transfer.[13] He would gradually go on to establish himself within the team and helped the club gain promotion to the top tier at the end of the 2022 China League One season.[14]
He signed for Guangxi Lanhang for the 2024 season.[15]
