Club career

Born in Valencia, Tortosa made his senior debut with Valencia CF's reserves in the 2008–09 season, in the Segunda División B. After being sparingly used, he joined Recreativo de Huelva on 29 January 2011.[1]

Tortosa played his first match as a professional on 15 April 2011, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–1 home draw against FC Barcelona B in the Segunda División.[2] He appeared in a further three matches for Recre during the campaign.[3]
