Football career

Born in Santa Coloma de Gramenet, Barcelona, Catalonia, Carmona graduated with Real Madrid's youth ranks, after a spell with fierce rivals FC Barcelona. He made his senior debuts with the C-team in the 2011–12 campaign, in Tercera División.

In August 2012 Carmona was loaned to Madrid neighbours CD Leganés, in Segunda División B.[1] However, after appearing sparingly he joined Real Valladolid B on 15 July 2013.[2]

Carmona played his first match as a professional on 10 September 2014, playing the full 90 minutes in a 3–1 away win over Sporting de Gijón for the season's Copa del Rey.[3] He made his Segunda División debut on 7 June of the following year, starting in a 2–4 home loss against UE Llagostera.[4]

On 19 June 2015 Carmona signed a one-year deal with another reserve team, UD Almería B also in the third division.[5]
