Club career
Born in Urnieta, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Hernández graduated from Real Sociedad's youth system. On 30 June 2011 he signed his first professional deal, running until 2016.[3]
Hernández made his debut as a senior on 26 November 2011, appearing with the reserves in a 0–3 home loss against SD Ponferradina in the Segunda División B championship.[4] On 10 June of the following year he was definitely promoted to the B-team,[5] and went on to appear regularly for the side in the following campaigns.
On 17 December Hernández made his first team debut, replacing Alfreð Finnbogason in a 2–0 home win against Real Oviedo, for the campaign's Copa del Rey.[6] He made his La Liga debut four days later, again from the bench in a 1–1 away draw against Levante UD.[7]
On 14 August 2015 Hernández was loaned to Barakaldo CF, in a season-long deal.[8] On 1 July of the following year he signed for another reserve team, Bilbao Athletic also in the third division.[9]
On 31 August 2018, after a one-season spell at Burgos CF, Hernández moved abroad for the first time in his career and joined Eerste Divisie side FC Den Bosch.[10]
Hernández signed with Bolivian club Bolívar on 31 January 2018.[11] After only one month in his new club, he was loaned out to San José because he didn't impress the coach at Bolívar.[12] In January 2020, he moved to fellow league club Royal Pari.[13]
