Club career

Villarreal

Born in Torre-Pacheco, Region of Murcia, Marín joined local Villarreal CF's academy in 2009 at the age of 12.[1] He made his senior debut with the C team in the 2013–14 season in the Tercera División,[2] and also appeared with the reserves in the Segunda División B the same year.

In May 2014, Marín was called up to the main squad by manager Marcelino García Toral for the preseason trip to Asia.[3] There, he featured in friendlies against CF Reus Deportiu[4] and Middlesbrough.[5]

Marín played his first match as a professional on 28 August 2014, coming on as a substitute for Jaume Costa in the 57th minute of a 4–0 home win over FC Astana in the play-off round of the UEFA Europa League.[6] His maiden La Liga appearance occurred on 14 September, as he started in the 0–0 draw at Granada CF.[7]

On 20 July 2016, Marín was loaned to fellow top-tier club CD Leganés in a season-long deal.[8] Upon returning, he extended his contract until 2021 and was definitely promoted to the first team.[9]

Alavés

On 9 August 2018, Marín signed a three-year deal with Deportivo Alavés.[10] During his two-and-a-half-year spell at the Mendizorrotza Stadium, he appeared in only 28 competitive games.[11]

Granada

Marín joined Granada CF on 1 February 2021, on a two-and-a-half-year contract.[12] On 30 August, he moved to Primeira Liga side F.C. Famalicão on a one-year loan with a buyout clause.[13] He totalled 33 appearances during his stint at the latter, scoring four goals.[14]

Gil Vicente

On 13 August 2022, Marín agreed to a two-year deal at Gil Vicente F.C. also in the Portuguese top flight.[15] [16] On 23 October, he was sent off in the last seconds of the first half with his team winning 1–0, enabling hosts G.D. Chaves to come from behind and win 3–1.[17]

Braga

Marín signed a three-year contract with S.C. Braga of the same country and league on 20 June 2023.[18]
