Club career
Pardo was born in Logroño, La Rioja. He made his senior debuts in the 2009–10 season, appearing for Real Sociedad's reserves in Tercera División and helping them achieve promotion.
On 29 October 2011, Pardo made his debut for the first team, coming on as a substitute for Markel Bergara in the last minutes of a 0–1 La Liga home defeat against Real Madrid. He scored his first goal for the Txuriurdin on 13 February of the following year in a 2–0 success over Sevilla FC also at Anoeta Stadium, and finished the campaign with 17 appearances all competitions comprised.
In 2013–14, Pardo missed only three games and contributed three goals, including one to conclude a 2–0 win over Athletic Bilbao in the Basque derby on 5 January 2014. His form led to speculation of a transfer to Manchester United, which he played down; on 9 May, he renewed his contract with Real Sociedad until 2018.
Pardo was loaned to fellow league club Real Betis in January 2017, for the remainder of the season. He made his debut on the 29th, starting in a 1–1 home draw against reigning champions FC Barcelona.
International career
Pardo was part of Spain's squad in the 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship, although he only played in one game, as a substitute against France. He was selected by the under-18 team for the unofficial 2010 Copa del Atlántico, which his country won.
Pardo featured in every match at the 2011 European Under-19 Championship, helping the national side conquer the tournament in Romania.
