Born in Cantabria, he moved to Madrid as a child, where he began to play football. At only 17 years of age, he joined Athletic Club de Madrid in 1916, with whom he played for 4 seasons, forming a great defensive line with José Luis de Goyarrola and Adolfo Álvarez-Buylla, as well as featuring alongside the likes of Pagaza, Juan de Cárcer, Sócrates Quintana and the Villaverde brothers (Fernando and Senén).[3] In 1920, he returned to Cantabria, where he signed for Racing de Santander, with whom he played for 7 years until he retired in 1927, winning five Cantabrian Championship in a row between 1922 and 1927.
