On 26 May 2014, after scoring 11 goals for Basconia, Seguín was promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B.[1] He appeared in 35 matches and scored three goals over the course of the season, as the B-side returned to Segunda División after a 19-year absence.

Seguín made his professional debut on 24 August 2015, starting in a 0–1 home loss against Girona FC.[2] He scored his first goal in the second tier on 6 September, netting his team's second in a 3–1 home win against RCD Mallorca.
