Club career[edit]

Born in Palencia, Castile and León, Arnu joined Real Valladolid's youth sides in 2017, from local side CD San Juanillo.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 17 September 2023, coming on as a second-half substitute for Manu Pozo and scoring the winner in a 1–0 Segunda Federación away success over Real Oviedo Vetusta; aged 16 years and 197 days, he became the youngest player to score for the B's at the time (he was later surpassed by Víctor Fernández in December).[2][3]

Arnu made his first team debut on 11 May 2024, starting in a 0–0 Segunda División home draw against RCD Espanyol;[4] aged 17 years, 2 months and 7 days, he became the second-youngest to debut with the main squad, surpassing Iván Fresneda and being only behind Luis Miguel Gail.[5] Three days later, he renewed his contract until 2027.[6]
