Club career

Born in Castellón de la Plana, Valencian Community, Felip joined CD Castellón's youth setup in 2004, aged 12.[1] He made his senior debuts in the 2010–11 season, being relegated from Segunda División B.

On 1 August 2013 Felip moved to Getafe CF, being assigned to the reserves also in the third level.[2] On 14 January 2015 he played his first match with the main squad, starting in a 1–0 home win against UD Almería, for the campaign's Copa del Rey.[3]

Felip made his La Liga debut four days later, coming on as a late substitute for Sammir in a 0–3 home loss against Real Madrid.[4] On 3 July he left the club, after appearing in ten league matches with the main squad.[5]

In August 2015 Felip joined Elche CF on a trial basis. After suffering an injury in the pre-season, he was offered a contract only in October, and officially registered in January 2016 due to the lack of a professional contract in the previous campaign.[6][7]
