During his professional career, Rubio played exclusively for UE Lleida. With the Catalans, he experienced relegation to Segunda División B, in 1989, with immediate promotion back, but also a top flight season in 1993–94, after a 43-year absence (Rubio only missed three matches and scored three times, but the club went down again).
After 1995–96, in the second division, Rubio retired aged almost 35, with more than 500 official appearances. He would coach his favorite club on no fewer than four occasions - only one consecutive spell - being relegated to level three twice, and also managed CF Reus Deportiu, Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa and Atlético Monzón.
Rubio's son, Óscar, is also a footballer; having been born in Catalonia whilst his father represented Lleida, he too played for the club, amongst other teams.
