Football career
After starting out with modest local Club Atlético de Pinto, Madrid-born Camuñas switched to neighbours Rayo Vallecano, first representing its reserves then being loaned to another team from the capital, Getafe CF (by that time in the third division).
He returned to Rayo in the 2002–03 season, making his La Liga debut on 1 September 2002 in a 2–2 home draw against Deportivo Alavés. Rayo finished the campaign last and Camuñas went on to have four steady years in the second level, with Ciudad de Murcia and Xerez CD, scoring 18 league goals in his final two combined.
Having been acquired by top level's Recreativo de Huelva for 2007–08, Camuñas was one of the Andalusia side's most important players as they barely avoided top division relegation. He played in all the matches save – one 28 of those complete – and netted on five occasions.
In the following season, Camuñas scored even more (ten), but Recre finished last. In late August 2009, he signed a three-year contract with top-tier club CA Osasuna; an everpresent figure in his first year, he netted his first goal on 24 January 2010, against former side Xerez (2–1 away triumph).
Camuñas was again an automatic first-choice for Osasuna in 2010–11. On 30 January 2011 he scored the game's only goal in a home win against Real Madrid, which he had represented as a youth.
On 19 July 2011, Camuñas signed with Villarreal CF for three years. He struggled to gain playing time in his first season, also suffering physical problems throughout the campaign. On 5 February 2012 he scored his first official goal for the Yellow Submarine, the winner in a 2–1 success at Sevilla FC for the club's first away win of the campaign, which eventually ended in relegation after twelve years.
