Club career

[edit]

Born in Terrassa, Barcelona, Catalonia, Boniquet finished his formation with Terrassa FC. In July 2009, he moved to CA Osasuna and was assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B,[1] and made his senior debut on 19 September of that year, playing the last 29 minutes in a 1–0 away win against Sestao River Club.

In July 2010, after appearing rarely, Boniquet moved to CF Pobla de Mafumet in Tercera División.[2] On 16 January 2013, he agreed to a contract with UE Sant Andreu in the third division.[3]

On 15 August 2015, after representing third tier sides CF Badalona[4] and UE Cornellà,[5] Boniquet returned to Terrassa, being assigned to the main squad in the fourth division.[6] On 29 July of the following year, after scoring a career-best nine goals, he moved to CF Peralada,[7] helping the side in their promotion to division three.

Boniquet returned to Badalona on 28 July 2018,[8] but moved to fellow third division side CE Sabadell FC on 17 August of the following year.[9] With the latter side he achieved promotion to Segunda División in his first season, and renewed his contract for a further year on 9 July 2020.[10]

Boniquet made his professional debut at the age of 30 on 27 September 2020, coming on as a second-half substitute for Iker Undabarrena in a 0–1 away loss against RCD Mallorca.[11]
