Club career

Born in Barbate, Cádiz, Andalusia, Pejiño was a Cádiz CF youth graduate. On 16 July 2015, he was loaned to Tercera División side UD Los Barrios, and made his senior debut on 23 August of that year by coming on as a substitute in a 0–0 home draw against AD Ceuta FC.

Pejiño scored his first senior goals on 4 November 2015, netting a brace under seven minutes in a 4–3 home win against CD Utrera. The following January, he terminated his loan and moved to fellow fourth division side Conil CF, also in a temporary deal.

Pejiño returned to Cádiz during the 2016–17 campaign, being assigned to the reserves in the regional leagues. On 18 September 2016, he scored a hat-trick in a 7–0 Primera Andaluza home routing of CD Pinzón.[1]

On 26 July 2017, free agent Pejiño signed for Sevilla FC, being assigned to the C-team also in the fourth division.[2] The following 4 February he made his professional debut with the B-side, replacing Giorgi Aburjania in a 0–1 home loss against SD Huesca for the Segunda División championship.[3]

Definitely promoted to the reserves ahead of the 2018–19 campaign, Pejiño made his first-team debut on 26 July 2018, replacing Pablo Sarabia in a 4–0 UEFA Europa League home routing of Újpest FC.[4]
