On 23 January 2013 García moved to San Fernando CD, in Segunda División B. He finished the campaign with 15 appearances (12 starts), scoring one goal.
On 6 July, García joined La Liga side Granada CF for four years. He featured with the first team during pre-season, and made his professional – and La Liga – debut on 18 August, playing the last twelve minutes of a 2–1 away win against CA Osasuna.
On 28 August 2014 García was loaned to Segunda División club Racing de Santander, in a season-long loan deal. Roughly a year later he moved to Cádiz CF, also in a temporary deal.
