Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Nano spent the vast majority of his first six years as a senior in the lower leagues and amateur football, representing UD Fuengirola Los Boliches, UD Marbella, FC Barcelona Atlètic, Córdoba CF, UE Lleida and FC Cartagena. The exception to this occurred during the 2005–06 season, when he totalled only 198 minutes in the Segunda División for Gimnàstic de Tarragona to help them to promote to La Liga.[1]
Nano returned to the second division in the 2009–10 campaign, being relatively played by Cádiz CF[2] but suffering relegation. He scored his first goal as a professional on 4 October 2009, in a 1–0 away win against Albacete Balompié.[3]
After two years back in division three, with Real Oviedo,[4] Nano returned to the second tier by signing for SD Ponferradina.[5] He only missed one game in 42 in his only season, adding two goals[6][7] to help the club avoid relegation one year after promoting.
In the summer of 2013, after refusing to show up for training,[8][9] Nano joined Panathinaikos F.C. from Greece. He made his debut in top-flight football on 18 August of that year, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 2–0 home victory over Panetolikos F.C. in the Super League and converting a three-minute penalty kick in the process.[10]
Nano extended his contract to Pana on 8 December 2014, until 2017.[11] During his spell in Athens, he was successively reconverted into a left-back.[12]
On 25 August 2016, Nano signed a two-year deal with Spanish second division team UD Almería.[13]
