Ramallets first signed for CF Barcelona in 1946 at the age of 23. He then spent the 1946/47 season on loan at Real Valladolid. He returned to CF Barcelona where he became the second choice goalkeeper behind Velasco. He eventually made his La Liga debut in a 2-1 win over Sevilla CF on November 28 1948. Although this was his only appearance he made during the 1948/49 season, in subsequent seasons he established himself as the club’s regular choice keeper. He was a prominent member of the successful 1950s CF Barcelona team that also included Joan Segarra, Marià Gonzalvo, Ladislao Kubala, Sandor Kocsis, Evaristo, Luis Suárez and Zoltán Czibor. During his playing career with the club he made 538 appearances, including 288 in La Liga. On March 6 1962 CF Barcelona played a testimonial in his honour against Hamburger SV and won 5-1.
