Club career
Born in Cartagena, Murcia, Arturo began playing as a senior with local CD Bala Azul in the 2008–09 season, in Tercera División. A season later, he signed with FC Cartagena, being assigned to the reserve team also in the fourth division.
In the 2011 summer Arturo first arrived in Segunda División B, signing with newly formed CF La Unión, joining fellow third-divisioner Getafe CF B a season later.
On 8 July 2013 Arturo signed with La Roda CF, also in the third level. On 30 December he signed with Córdoba CF in Segunda División, after being the Castilian-Manchegan's topscorer with 15 goals in only 19 appearances.
Arturo made his professional debut on 4 January 2014, playing the last 21 minutes and scoring the last of a 2–0 home success over Recreativo de Huelva. He contributed with 19 appearances and two goals, as the Andalusians returned to La Liga after a 42-year absence.
On 15 July 2014 Arturo was loaned to AD Alcorcón, also in the second level. After appearing rarely, he rescinded his link on 7 January of the following year, and moved to fellow league team UE Llagostera hours later.
On 20 January 2016, after spending the first half of the campaign with Córdoba, Arturo was loaned to Dundee until June; he totalled only five games for the Dees, all as a substitute.
On 13 July 2016, Arturo returned to Cartagena, now for the main squad in the third level, after agreeing to a two-year contract.
