Early career
Born in Olesa de Montserrat, Barcelona, Catalonia, García was raised in Guadix, Granada, Andalusia, and joined Guadix CF's youth setup in 2009.[1] In 2013 he moved to UD Almería, and made his senior debut with the reserves on 29 October 2017 by coming on as a late substitute in a 0–1 Tercera División away loss against Atarfe Industrial CF.[2]
Betis
On 12 July 2018, García joined Real Betis;[3] initially assigned to the Juvenil A squad, he appeared regularly with the B-team also in the fourth division during the campaign, scoring 15 goals. He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 24 September of the following year, replacing Borja Iglesias late into a 3–1 home success over Levante UD.[4]
On 7 March 2022, García renewed his contract with Betis until 2025.[5]
Loan to Mirandés
On 28 June 2022, García was loaned to Segunda División side CD Mirandés for the season.[6] He scored his first professional goal on 13 August, in a 2–2 home draw against Sporting de Gijón; it was also his debut for Mirandés.
In December 2022, García scored three times in three matches (including a brace in a 2–1 home win over SD Ponferradina), as the club remained undefeated during the entire month. He ended the campaign with 19 goals, being the division's top national scorer, and second behind Granada CF's Myrto Uzuni.
