Azón scored his first senior goal on 16 December 2020, netting the opener in a 2–0 away win against Gimnástica de Torrelavega, for the season's Copa del Rey.[4] His first league goal came on the following 2 January, as he netted the equalizer in a 1–1 draw at FC Cartagena.[5]

On 14 January 2021, Azón renewed his contract until 2024.[6]
