Career

[edit]

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Sánchez joined Real Madrid's La Fábrica in 2015, after representing Málaga CF's affiliate side CD San Félix and CD Tiro Pichón.[1] In January 2019, he returned to Málaga as a part of the deal which saw Chechu move in the opposite direction,[2] and was assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B.

On 29 August 2019, after featuring in just one match, Sánchez signed for Tercera División side CD El Ejido.[3] He was a regular starter as the club returned to the third division at first attempt, and signed a three-year deal with Extremadura UD in that category on 11 August 2020.[4]

On 19 January 2021, after failing to feature with the Azulgranas, Sánchez was loaned to fellow third division side Linares Deportivo for the remainder of the season.[5] On 17 August, he moved to CE Sabadell FC in the newly-created Primera División RFEF.[6]

On 18 July 2022, Sánchez agreed to a one-year deal with CD Numancia also in the third tier.[7] After being a regular starter as the club suffered relegation, he returned to Málaga on a two-year contract on 11 August 2023.[8]

A backup to Víctor García, Sánchez contributed with 29 appearances overall during the 2023–24 campaign, as the Blanquiazules achieved promotion to Segunda División. On 2 July 2024, he signed a new one-year deal with the club.[9]
