Football career
Born in Salamanca, Castile and León, Hernández reached Real Madrid's youth academy in 2005 at the age of 16, signing from local UD Salamanca. He made his senior debuts in the 2008–09 season with Real Madrid Castilla, in Segunda División B, appearing in 24 games but only starting in three of those.
On 1 February 2011, after having played only ten league matches in one 1/2 seasons combined, Hernández was loaned to Halmstads BK in Sweden, alongside Castilla teammates Raúl and José Zamora.[1] He returned to his country in the summer, going on to continue competing in the third level in the following years with UD Salamanca, CD Ourense and Burgos CF.
