Football career

Born in Benidorm, Alicante, Valencia, Mariano was a youth product of local Benidorm CF, making his senior debuts in the 2006–07 campaign, appearing rarely in Segunda División B. In July 2010 he moved to CA Osasuna, being assigned to the reserves also in the third level.[1]

On 17 July 2012 Mariano joined another reserve team, Racing de Santander B, in the third division.[2] In July 2013 he was promoted to the main squad, freshly relegated into the same division,[3] and appeared in 33 matches during the season (27 in the league), scoring four goals (the most notable in a 2–0 Copa del Rey win against UD Almería on 14 January 2014)[4] as the Cantabrians returned to Segunda División at first attempt.

On 30 August 2014 Mariano played his first match as a professional, replacing Borja Granero in the 55th minute and scoring his side's only six minutes later, but in a 1–2 home loss against CD Mirandés.[5]
