Club career[]
Born in Palma, Majorca, Balearic Islands, James joined RCD Mallorca's youth setup in 2011, aged 16, from CD Atlético Baleares.[1] He was also called up to train with the main squad two times, one in October 2012 under Joaquín Caparrós,[1] and other in February 2013 under Gregorio Manzano.[2]
In the 2014 summer James was promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B. He made his senior debut on 24 August, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–1 home win against Valencia CF Mestalla.[3]
James made his professional debut on 21 November 2015, coming on as a half-time substitute for Thierry Moutinho in a 1–1 home draw against CD Lugo for the Segunda División championship.[4] On 24 June of the following year, he signed a new two-year deal with the club, but remained assigned to the B-side.[5]
On 22 August 2018, James was loaned to third division side CD Guijuelo, for one year.[6]
International career[]
A son of a Fernandino father and a Bubi mother, James was eligible for Equatorial Guinea despite being born in Spain. On 26 March 2015 he made his full international debut, starting in a 0–2 friendly loss against Egypt.[7]
