Club career[]

Born in Zaragoza, Aragon, Buenacasa joined FC Barcelona's youth setup in 2010, aged 14, after spells at Real Zaragoza and San Gregorio CD.[1][2] On 30 August 2013 he moved to Juventus F.C. on a free transfer, being initially assigned to its Primavera squad.[3]

On 31 August 2015, after spending the whole pre-season with Juventus' first team, Buenacasa returned to Zaragoza.[4] Initially assigned to the reserves, he made his senior debut on 25 October, starting and scoring the opener in a 2–1 away win against CD Binéfar in the Tercera División.[5]

On 7 December 2015 Buenacasa made his professional debut, coming on as a late substitute for Alfredo Ortuño in a 1–0 Segunda División away win against Bilbao Athletic.[6] On 14 July 2017, he signed for Segunda División B side Barakaldo CF.[7]

On 18 June 2018, after scoring 14 goals for Barakaldo, Buenacasa signed a three-year contract with RCD Mallorca in the second division.[8] He contributed with only eight league appearances during the campaign, as his side achieved promotion to La Liga, and was loaned to second division side SD Ponferradina on 12 July 2019.[9]

On 11 January 2020, after being rarely used, Buenacasa moved to fellow second tier side Málaga CF on loan for the remainder of the campaign.[10] On 11 September, he signed a one-year deal with Hércules CF in the third tier.[11]
