Born in Chiclana de la Frontera, Cádiz, Andalusia, Sánchez joined Real Madrid's La Fábrica in August 2012, from Cádiz CF, for a fee of €250,000.[1] He made his senior debut with the former's C-team at the age of 17 on 24 March 2013, starting in a 1–2 Segunda División B away loss against Sporting de Gijón B.

Sánchez only returned to action on 24 September 2017, in a 1–2 loss at CDA Navalcarnero, 861 days after his last official match.[3] He spent the first half of the 2018–19 season unregistered, and subsequently moved to Real Valladolid's B-team on 31 January 2019.[4]
On 18 June 2019, Sánchez renewed his contract with the Blanquivioletas until 2021.[5] On 14 August of the following year, he returned to Sabadell, with his side now in Segunda División.[6]
Sánchez made his professional debut on 19 September 2020, starting in a 1–2 away loss against Rayo Vallecano.[7] The following 19 July, after suffering relegation, he signed a one-year deal with Deportivo de La Coruña in the Primera División RFEF.[8]
Sánchez was a backup option to Pablo Martinez and Pablo Vázquez during the 2023–24 campaign, scoring once in 23 matches overall as Dépor returned to the second division. On 18 June 2024, he renewed his link for a further year.[9]
