Club career

Born in Teba, Province of Málaga, Ocaña played youth football with Málaga CF, but appeared solely for the reserves as a senior. In 2012, he joined Villarreal CF C[1] and, the following year, signed for another lower league club, Écija Balompié from Segunda División B.[2] On 5 January 2014 he scored his third and final goal of the season and contributed to a 2–0 home win against La Roda CF,[3] but his team was eventually relegated.

On 6 June 2014, Ocaña moved to Doxa Katokopias FC, signing a two-year contract.[4] He made his debut in top flight football on 14 September, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 0–4 home loss to AEL Limassol for the Cypriot First Division championship.
