Club career

Born in Seville, Andalusia, Lara represented Sevilla FC as a youth. On 28 October 2016, while still a youth, he signed his first professional contract by agreeing to a deal until 2019.[2]

On 3 December 2017, aged only 17, Lara made his professional debut with the reserves by starting in a 1–1 Segunda División home draw against CD Lugo.[3] He scored his first goal the following 28 April, netting the game's only in a home defeat of AD Alcorcón.

Lara made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 19 May 2018, coming on as a late substitute for Nolito in a 1–0 home win against Deportivo Alavés.[4] On 11 September 2020, he was loaned to Deportivo de La Coruña, freshly relegated to the third division, for one year.[5]

Lara terminated his contract with Sevilla on 1 July 2021, and moved to crosstown rivals Real Betis twelve days later, being assigned to the B-team in Primera División RFEF.[6]
