Playing career

Born in Estepona, Málaga, Andalusia, Molina graduated from CD Málaga's youth setup. He made his senior debuts with the reserves in 1986, aged only 17.

On 10 January 1988, Molina appeared in his first game as a professional, starting in a 3–1 home win against Deportivo de La Coruña. He finished the season with six appearances, as his team was promoted to La Liga.

Molina was promoted to the main squad in the 1989 summer, and made his debut in the Spanish top level on 2 October 1988 by starting in a 1–1 draw at Sevilla FC. He featured regularly during the following campaigns, leaving the club in 1992 after it folded.

Molina subsequently alternated between the first and second divisions, representing CA Marbella, CP Mérida (two stints), RCD Espanyol, UD Las Palmas and CD Numancia. He retired with the latter at the end of 2004–05 at the age of 36, having appeared in 22 matches and scoring once in a relegation-ending season.

Manager career

Shortly after retiring Molina started his managerial career, taking charge of Mérida UD. He left in 2007, and was appointed at UD Los Barrios in the 2008 summer.

On 5 July 2011, after a stint at CF Villanovense, Molina was named Atlético Malagueño coach. In July of the following year he moved to Unión Estepona CF, and subsequently returned to Marbella FC on 3 May 2013. In July 2017, he was appointed manager at newly promoted Gibraltar Premier Division team Gibraltar Phoenix, charged with helping the club stay in the top flight.
