Born in Oviedo, Asturias, Sánchez joined Real Madrid's youth system in 2011, aged 15, from hometown Real Oviedo.[1] On 29 July 2015, after finishing his graduation, he was loaned to Segunda División B side CF Fuenlabrada, for one year.[2]
Sánchez made his senior debut on 23 August 2015, coming on as a second-half substitute for Jean Carlos in a 3–0 away win against Getafe CF B. His first goal came on 25 October, netting his team's third in a 3–3 draw at CD Ebro.
A regular starter under Fernando Morientes, Sánchez returned to Castilla in July 2016, but was rarely used. On 31 January 2017, he moved to another reserve team, RCD Mallorca B also in the third division, on loan until the end of the season.[3]
On 4 August 2017, Sánchez returned to Oviedo, signing a one-year loan deal and being assigned to the B-team in Tercera División.[4] On 13 July 2018, after achieving promotion to the third level, he signed a permanent contract with the club after terminating his link with Real Madrid.[5]
Sánchez made his first-team debut on 28 October 2018, replacing Joselu in a 1–2 away defeat to Gimnàstic de Tarragona in the Segunda División championship.[6] The following 29 January, he renewed his contract until 2022, being definitely promoted to the main squad for the following campaign.[7]
Sánchez scored his first professional goal on 13 October 2019, netting the winner in a 2–1 away defeat of Albacete Balompié.[8]
