Club career

Born in El Escorial, Community of Madrid, de la Fuente joined Real Madrid's La Fábrica in 2007, from CU Collado Villalba. On 10 January 2018, while still a youth, he signed a professional contract until 2022.[1]

On 14 September 2020, de la Fuente moved to another reserve team, after signing a three-year contract with Villarreal CF B also in the third division.[4] He made his first team debut on 30 November of the following year, starting in a 8–0 away routing of Victoria CF, for the season's Copa del Rey.[5]

De la Fuente made his professional debut with the B-side on 14 August 2022, starting in a 2–0 away win over Racing de Santander.[6] He scored his first professional goal on 3 September, netting the B's opener in a 3–0 home win over CD Mirandés.

On 29 June 2023, de la Fuente signed a three-year contract with fellow second division side Levante UD.[7]
