Football career

Early career

Born in Alicante, Valencian Community, Prieto joined Real Madrid's youth setup in 2008, aged 15. He was named to the C-team's pre-season program in the 2012 summer, but was later demoted back to the youth squad.

Despite appearing mainly with the Juvenil A squad, Prieto made his professional debut on 13 April 2013, replacing injured Tomás Mejías in a 3–1 away success against Recreativo de Huelva for the Segunda División championship.[1] In May 2013, he was definitely promoted to the C-side in Segunda División B, but acted mainly as a backup to Alfonso Herrero during the campaign.

On 7 August 2014, Prieto moved to another reserve team, RCD Espanyol B, also in the third level.[2] He was a regular starter during his three-year spell at the club.

Málaga

On 4 July 2017, Prieto signed a two-year deal with Málaga CF.[3] He made his La Liga debut on 21 October 2017, starting in a 0–2 away loss against FC Barcelona.[4]

|Prieto acted mainly as a backup to Roberto during his first season, which ended in relegation. On 29 January 2019, after being demoted to third-choice behind new signings Munir and Paweł Kieszek, he terminated his contract with the Andalusians.[5]

Leganés

Prieto agreed a short-term deal with CD Leganés on 29 January 2019, hours after rescinding with Málaga.[6] However, he failed to appear for the Pepineros, being called up for just two matches and acting as a third option behind Iván Cuéllar and Andriy Lunin.

Return to Espanyol

On 19 July 2019, Prieto agreed to a two-year deal back at RCD Espanyol, being now assigned to the main squad in the top tier.[7]
