Club career
Born in Terrassa, Barcelona, Catalonia, Gallar was a Terrassa FC youth graduate. He made his senior debut on 8 December 2009, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 0–2 Segunda División B away loss against UE Lleida.
Gallar scored his first senior goal on 14 April 2010, netting his team's first in a 2–1 home win against Orihuela CF. On 19 June of that year he moved to RCD Mallorca, returning to youth football;[1] he was promoted to the reserves ahead of the 2011–12 season.
On 2 August 2012, after being sparingly used, Gallar signed for another reserve team, Real Murcia Imperial in Tercera División.[2] The following January, he moved to fellow league team UE Rubí.
On 28 May 2013, Gallar returned to Terrassa and the third division, after agreeing to a one-year deal.[3] After spells at UE Cornellà[4] and Hércules CF,[5] he moved to Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa on 8 July 2016.[6]
Gallar was a key unit in Cultu's promotion to Segunda División, scoring a career-best 20 goals. On 10 July 2017, he signed a three-year deal with SD Huesca in the second division, for a fee of €400,000.[7]
Gallar made his professional debut on 19 August 2017, starting in a 0–1 loss at CD Numancia.[8] His first goal came on 10 October, in a 1–1 home draw against CF Reus Deportiu; he ended the campaign as a starter, netting eight times as his side achieved a first-ever promotion to La Liga.
Gallar made his debut in the main category of Spanish football on 19 August 2018, starting and scoring a brace in a 2–1 away defeat of SD Eibar.[9] He finished 2018–19 with four goals in 25 appearances (only ten starts, however), as his side was immediately relegated back.
On 21 August 2019, Gallar agreed to a four-year contract with Girona FC in the second level.[10]
