Club career

Toti was born in Salamanca, Castile and León. A UD Salamanca youth graduate, he made his senior debut with the reserves in 2005–06 in the Tercera División, while still a junior; he appeared with the main squad the same season, playing five games as they returned to Segunda División at the first attempt.[1][2]

Toti featured in his first match as a professional on 16 June 2007, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 home win against Ciudad de Murcia.[3] He was definitely promoted to the first team in August, and scored his first goal on 8 June 2008, the second of a 3–1 home victory over RC Celta de Vigo.[4]

In August 2011, after suffering relegation from the second division, Toti signed for Granada CF[5] and was immediately loaned to Segunda División B's Cádiz CF.[6] On 31 August of the following year, he joined second-tier Hércules CF also in a temporary deal.[7]

On 30 August 2013, Toti moved to Deportivo Alavés of the same league in a season-long loan.[8] In July 2014, after appearing in 31 competitive matches and scoring four goals, he signed permanently for the club.[9]
