Football career

Born in Madrid, Benito began his career with local Rayo Vallecano, spending several seasons with the reserves and helping them promote to Segunda División B in 2010. On 30 January 2011, he made his debut with the first team, playing six minutes in a 3–0 away win against CD Numancia and totalling two appearances during the season as the club returned to La Liga after eight years.

Benito played again almost exclusively with the B-team in the 2011–12 campaign. He appeared in his first game in the top division on 12 February 2012, coming on as a substitute for Emiliano Armenteros in the dying minutes of a 2–0 home win against Getafe CF.[1]

On 10 August 2012, Benito joined another reserve team, Getafe CF B also in the third level.[2] On 20 July of the following year, he moved to fellow league side Albacete Balompié after agreeing to a two-year deal.[3]
