[edit] Career

[edit] Recreativo

After graduating from the Valencia B team, Xisco moved to Recreativo de Huelva. He made 38 appearances and scored 10 goals. He then moved to Tenerife in the 2001/2002 season, playing 28 games, scoring 1 goal, before returning (always loaned by Valencia) to Recreativo for 2002-2003, playing 23 games and netting 6 times.

[edit] Valencia

He moved to Valencia CF in 2003, playing 44 games, scoring 4 goals.

[edit] Real Betis

Xisco moved to Real Betis in 2005, where he has showed promise as an all-around hard worker, applying himself in whichever offensive position the trainer requires. Xisco scored a number of vitally important goals in the 2006-07 La Liga, including a couple of late goals against Gimnàstic de Tarragona and Racing Santander, as Betis barely avoided relegation in the last matchday.
