Football career
Callejón was born in Motril, Granada. In 2005–06, he played in 33 games and scored eight goals for Real Madrid's Juvenil A and, in March 2007, he made his senior debut for the club's B-team, finishing the season in the second division with two goalless substitute appearances as the side dropped down a level.
In 2007–08, Callejón played together with brother José as Real B were now in division three. On 11 August 2008, he signed a four-year contract with RCD Mallorca, leaving in the same transfer window as his twin brother – the Balearic Islands club retained 75% of the player's rights. He made his La Liga debut on 25 September 2008 in a 2–0 home win over CD Numancia, starting in what would be his only league match in the entire campaign.
On 25 August 2009, Callejón was loaned to Albacete Balompié in the second division, in a season-long move. He stayed in the category for 2010–11, joining Córdoba CF in his native Andalusia on a free transfer.
In January 2013, after 1½ second-level seasons of irregular playing time with Hércules CF, free agent Callejón signed for Levadiakos F.C. of Greece on a 1½-year deal. In July he switched clubs and countries again, joining Bolivia's Club Bolívar. He scored four goals in twelve appearances in the latter's semi-final run in the Copa Libertadores and, on 30 November 2014, he netted a hat-trick in a 6–1 win over Club Real Potosí to keep his team on top of the Liga de Fútbol Profesional Boliviano, and him as the top scorer; in a 2–1 win over the same opponents on 19 March 2015, both he and teammate Jhasmani Campos were sent off for retaliation.
