Club career

[edit]

Born in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Iglesias was a youth product of local Deportivo de La Coruña. He made his debuts as a senior with the reserves, representing the side in the fourth division.

Iglesias made his official debut for the Galicians' first team on 24 August 2013, playing the last 13 minutes in a 1–0 home defeat against Córdoba CF in the second level championship.[1] On 31 July 2015, he rescinded his contract, with Depor having an option to re-sign him until 2018,[2] and signed a four-year deal with Deportivo Alavés on 11 August.[3]

On 1 September 2015, Iglesias was loaned to CD Guadalajara, in a season-long deal.[4]

Following a loan to Istra 1961 in the 2018–19 season, Iglesias transferred to Rijeka in July 2019.[5][6]
