Club career
Born in Elche, Alicante, Valencian Community, Germán joined RCD Espanyol's youth setup in 2007 from local Elche CF, aged 14. He made his senior debuts with the B-team, in Tercera División.
On 26 August 2013, Germán signed a new four-year deal with the Catalans, being also promoted to the main squad. On 8 December he played his first game as a professional, starting in a 2–2 away draw against Real Jaén for the season's Copa del Rey (eventual 4–2 aggregate win).
Germán first appeared in La Liga on 6 April 2014, taking the place of suspended Kiko Casilla in a 1–4 loss at Sevilla FC. On 22 January of the following year, after losing his backup position to another youth graduate, Pau López, he was loaned to Segunda División club Racing de Santander until June.
On 18 August 2015, Germán moved to fellow league team Girona FC in a season-long loan deal. He played understudy to Isaac Becerra during his spell, and terminated his contract with Espanyol on 5 August 2016.
On 6 August 2016, Germán returned to his first club Elche.
