Valencia CF
After finishing his football grooming at local outfit Burjassot CF, Míchel started playing professionally with Valencia CF's B side; after a string of midfield injuries to the main squad (Rubén Baraja, Eduardo César Gaspar and Manuel Fernandes), he was called-up by coach Unai Emery, making his first division debut against FC Barcelona, playing 20 minutes in a 4–0 away loss on 6 December 2008 (previous to that, he had already appeared in a domestic cup outing against Club Portugalete, where he also scored).
Míchel's first start occurred on 3 March 2009, in a 1–2 loss at CD Numancia, as he began to be regularly summoned to the league's squad of 18 each week. He was delighted with his first year at Valencia, never having imagined he would be playing for the main team in Valencia having not much earlier being in the fourth division, with lowly Burjassot CF.
Deportivo La Coruña
In the summer of 2010, after nearly a year of chasing him, Míchel was loaned out to Depor for the 2010/2011 season. There was no option to buy him included in the deal.
International Career
Míchel made his debut for Spain U-21's against the Republic of Ireland U-21's on March 27, 2009. Ireland won 2-1.
