Football career

Mallorca

Born in Valencia, Marí was a product of RCD Mallorca's youth categories. He made his debuts as a senior with the B-team at the age of just 17, going on to spend several seasons in the third division. Marí made his first appearance with the main squad on 7 December 2011, playing 30 minutes in a 2–2 draw against Granada CF after coming off the bench for fellow youth graduate Pedro Bigas.[1]

On 5 May 2012 Marí played his second La Liga game, again acting as a substitute in a 1–0 home win over Levante UD.[2] He continued to be almost exclusively associated with the reserves until the end of his spell in the Balearic Islands.

Gimnàstic

On 2 September 2013 Marí signed a contract with Gimnàstic de Tarragona, also in the third level.[3] He made his debut for the Catalans on 12 October, starting and conceding a penalty in a 2–2 draw at CD Olímpic de Xàtiva.[4]

Marí scored his first goal for Nàstic on 1 December, netting the winner in a 2–1 home success against Levante UD B.[5] On 25 June 2015, after achieving promotion to Segunda División, he signed a new three-year deal with the club.[6]

Marí scored his first professional goal on 30 August 2015, netting his team's first in a 2–1 away win over CD Tenerife.[7]
