Club career

Almería

Born in Tarazona de la Mancha, Albacete, Castilla-La Mancha, Panadero joined UD Almería's youth setup in 2012, aged 14, after starting it out at Albacete Balompié.[1] He made his senior debut with the B-team on 10 May 2014, coming on as a second half substitute for Kiu in a 2–3 Segunda División B home loss against UD Melilla.

On 12 September 2014 Panadero made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, playing the last six minutes in a 1–1 home draw against Córdoba CF at the age of 16 years and 277 days,[2] thus becoming the Andalusians' youngest player to debut for the club (also in the top division),[3] and the 20th overall.[4] However, he only appeared with the B-side for the remainder of the campaign.

Panadero scored his first senior goal on 10 January 2016, netting the last in a 3–1 home win against FC Jumilla. On 27 January of the following year, in only his second match with the main squad, he scored the last in a 3–0 home success over Real Oviedo, after replacing Javi Álamo in the dying minutes.[5]

Ahead of the 2017–18 season, Panadero was definitely promoted to the main squad, and extended his contract until 2021 on 9 August 2017.[6] The following April, he suffered a serious knee injury, being sidelined for seven months.[7]

Al Wahda

On 26 January 2020, Panadero moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining UAE Pro League side Al Wahda FC.[8]

Cádiz

On 2 August 2020, Panadero signed a three-year contract with newly-promoted La Liga club Cádiz CF,[9] but was loaned to SD Ponferradina in the second division on 5 October.[10] Upon returning, he terminated his contract on 3 August 2021.[11]

Qarabağ

On 4 August 2021, Panadero signed a one-year deal with Qarabağ FK in Azerbaijan.[12]

International career

On 17 September 2014 Panadero was called up to Spain under-19, along with teammate Antonio Marín.[13] He made his debut for the side on 27 January of the following year, starting and assisting Borja Mayoral in a 1–0 home win against Qatar.[14]
