Club career[]

Born in Badalona, Barcelona, Catalonia, Gual represented CF Badalona and FC Barcelona as a youth before joining RCD Espanyol's youth categories in 2013. He made his debut for the reserves on 4 October 2015, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Valencia CF Mestalla in the Segunda División B.[1]

Gual scored his first goal as a senior on 3 January 2016, his team's first in a 2–2 away draw against Villarreal CF B.[2] On 12 March, he scored a brace in a 4–0 home routing of CD Olímpic de Xàtiva.[3]

On 9 November 2016, Gual signed a three-year contract with another reserve team, Sevilla Atlético in Segunda División, mainly as a replacement to injured Carlos Fernández and Maryan Shved.[4] He made his professional debut ten days later, starting and scoring his team's second in a 2–2 away draw against RCD Mallorca.[5]

On 9 April 2017, Gual scored a brace in a 2–3 away loss against Elche CF. Seven days later, he scored a hat-trick in a 6–2 home rout of Real Valladolid, taking his tally up to eight.

On 9 August 2018, Gual was loaned to fellow second division side Real Zaragoza, for one year.[6] On 28 June of the following year, he joined freshly relegated side Girona FC also in a temporary deal.[7]

On 30 January 2020, Gual moved to Real Madrid Castilla on loan for the remainder of the season.[8] On 1 September, he agreed to a permanent two-year contract with AD Alcorcón in the second division.[9]

On 7 January 2022, Gual terminated his contract with Alkor.[10] He then moved abroad for the first time, signing for Ukrainian Premier League club SC Dnipro-1 on a deal until the summer of 2024.[11] Only 42 days on from his signing, and before the resumption of the Ukrainian season after the winter break, the league was suspended due to the Russian invasion and he escaped the country.[12][13][14] On 7 March, FIFA suspended the contracts of all foreign players and coaches affiliated with the Ukrainian Association of Football.[15]
