Club career

Toni was born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, and joined Real Betis' youth setup in July 2012, from UD Las Palmas.[1] Promoted to the reserves ahead of the 2015–16 season, he made his senior debut on 30 August 2015 by coming on as a second-half substitute for Julio Gracia in a 0–1 home loss against La Hoya Lorca CF.

Toni scored his first senior goal on 6 September 2015, netting the winner in a 4–3 home defeat of FC Jumilla. He finished the campaign with one goal in 15 appearances, as his side suffered relegation.

On 20 July 2016, Toni moved to Real Madrid and returned to youth football.[2] He was promoted to the B-team in June of the following year,[3] but only appeared sparingly before being loaned to fellow third division side Recreativo de Huelva on 20 January 2018.[4]

On 8 August 2018, Toni terminated his contract with Los Blancos,[5] and signed for another reserve team, UD Las Palmas Atlético two days later.[6] He made his first team debut on 14 April 2019, replacing Deivid in a 0–3 home loss against Cádiz CF.[7]

Personal life

Toni's father, also named Antonio, was also a footballer and a midfielder.[1] He also represented Las Palmas.
