Club career
Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Recio only played amateur football in his country, representing UE Rapitenca and CF Amposta. In June 2010 he was signed by Kitchee SC in Hong Kong, reuniting with former teammate – at both clubs – Ubay Luzardo (also a stopper). The club's manager, compatriot Josep Gombau, had tried to acquire the player in the previous transfer window, but failed.
On 17 October 2013, general manager Ken Ng announced that Recio had renewed his contract until 2016. On 29 May of the following year he won the Hong Kong Player of the Year Award for 2013–14 season, receiving a HK$35,000 prize.
