Club career
Born in Madrid, Avilés joined CD Leganés' youth setup in 2015, after already having made his senior debut with CD Coslada. On 27 August 2016, after finishing his formation, he signed for Segunda División B side CD Atlético Baleares.[1]
On 27 January 2017, after being rarely used, Avilés terminated his contract[2] and signed for Tercera División side CF Pobla de Mafumet five days later.[3] In July, he moved to fellow fourth division side Deportivo Rayo Cantabria.
On 2 February 2018, Avilés returned to Leganés and was assigned to the reserves also in the fourth tier.[4] He made his first-team debut on 30 October, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Youssef En-Nesyri in a 2–2 home draw against Rayo Vallecano, for the season's Copa del Rey.[5]
Avilés made his La Liga debut on 25 August 2019, replacing Javier Eraso late into a 0–1 home loss against Atlético Madrid. On 23 December, he renewed his contract until 2023.[6]
Avilés scored his first goal in the main category of Spanish football on 27 June 2020, netting the equalizer in a 1–2 loss at CA Osasuna.[7]
