Club career[edit]

Born in Leganés, Madrid, Miguel Ángel finished his formation with Getafe CF. On 27 August 2017 he made his senior debut with the reserves, starting in a 2–1 Tercera División home win against CF Pozuelo de Alarcón.[1]

Miguel Ángel scored his first senior goal on 15 October 2017, netting the opener in a 3–0 home defeat of CD San Fernando de Henares.[2] The following 6 May he made his first team – and La Liga – debut, coming on as a second-half substitute for fellow debutant David Alba in a 1–0 away win against UD Las Palmas.[3]

On 14 June 2019, Miguel Ángel signed a new four-year contract with Geta.[4] On 25 July, he was loaned out to newly promoted Segunda División club CF Fuenlabrada in a season-long deal.[5]

On 31 January 2020, after only one Copa del Rey match for Fuenla, Miguel Ángel's loan was terminated.[6] On 14 February, he joined Real Valladolid's B-team on loan for the remainder of the season;[7] on 18 August, his loan was renewed for a further year.[8]

On 20 August 2021, Miguel Ángel moved to Burgos CF in the second division on a season-long loan deal.[9] On 26 July of the following year, he signed a permanent three-year deal with Granada CF in the same tier.[10]
