Club career

Born in Sedaví, Valencian Community, Giménez joined Levante UD's youth setup in 2016, from cross-town rivals Valencia CF. Promoted to the reserves in Segunda División RFEF ahead of the 2021–22 season, he made his senior debut on 3 October 2021, coming on as a first-half substitute in a 1–0 away loss against CF La Nucía.

On 14 March 2022, after establishing himself as a regular starter for the B-team, Giménez renewed his contract with the Granotes until 2024.[2] He scored his first senior goal on 2 October, netting the B's winner through a free kick in a 1–0 Tercera Federación away success over CF Gandía.[3]

Giménez made his first team debut for Levante on 9 April 2023, replacing Marc Pubill in a 1–1 draw at SD Eibar in the Segunda División.[4][5] On 17 July, he was loaned to Primera Federación side Unionistas de Salamanca CF, for one year.[6]

On 31 May 2024, after being a regular starter for Unionistas, Giménez renewed his contract with the Granotas until June 2026.[7] On 24 June, however, he moved to Atlético Madrid B on a three-year deal.[8]
