Football career[]

Born in Mogán, Las Palmas, Pollo played youth football at UD Las Palmas. His professional debuts were made at neighbours UD Vecindario, where he went on to appear in the fourth and third divisions during three years.

In 2005, Pollo signed for Atlético Madrid, spending two seasons with the reserves also in the third level. On 6 January 2007 he played his first and only game in La Liga, coming on as a substitute for Luciano Galletti in the last minute of the home fixture against Gimnàstic de Tarragona (0–0).^[1]

Pollo returned to his native Canary Islands in the 2007 summer, joining Universidad de Las Palmas CF in division three. After two solid campaigns, especially the second, he returned to former youth club Las Palmas, now in the second tier.
