Club career

Born in Algallarín, Córdoba, Andalusia, Regalón finished his development with Atlético Madrid, spending six full seasons with the reserves in the third division and making his debut in the competition on 12 February 2006, in a 1–1 away draw against AD Alcorcón.[1] In the 2011–12 campaign he scored a career-best five goals, in 35 matches.

In June 2012, Regalón left the Colchoneros to join CD Numancia, signing a one-year contract.[2] He made his second level debut on 18 August, in a 2–0 home win against Sporting de Gijón.[3] He netted his first goal for the Soria club on 25 November, helping to a 4–2 away victory over Real Madrid Castilla.[4]

On 23 March 2017, Regalón cut ties with Numancia[5] and signed for Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa just hours later.[6] On 1 August, after achieving promotion to the second tier, he moved to Racing de Santander.[7]
