Football career
Born in Oviedo, Asturias, Diego spent three years in Real Madrid's youth system, leaving the club in 2009. Subsequently he signed with Real Zaragoza B, playing one season in the fourth division.
Diego joined UD Almería in the 2010 off-season, spending his first year with the reserves in the third level, as backup. He was promoted to the first team after Diego Alves' departure to Valencia CF in the 2011 summer.
Diego made his official debut for the Andalusians on 7 September 2011, in a 2–0 extra time home win against CD Guadalajara for the campaign's Copa del Rey. In June 2013 he was released, after failing to appear in a single league game; the following month he signed a two-year deal with SD Ponferradina, also in division two.
On 26 January 2014, Diego was loaned to Elche CF Ilicitano in the third tier, until June. On 21 January of the following year, he cut ties with Ponfe after failing to make any competitive appearances, and moved to third division side CD Alcoyano two days later.
