Club career edit

Born in Zaragoza, Aragon, Fuoli joined Villarreal CF's youth setup in 2015, from AD Stadium Casablanca.[2] Promoted to the C-team for the 2016–17 season, he made his senior debut on 20 August 2016 by starting in a 2–2 Tercera División away draw against UD Alzira.[3]

After being a regular starter for the C-side, Fuoli was promoted to the reserves in July 2017. A backup to Ander Cantero in his first season and to Joan Femenías in his second, he became a regular starter in his third, but left the club on 30 June 2020.[4]

On 13 August 2020, Fuoli agreed to a contract with CE Sabadell, newly promoted to Segunda División.[5] He made his professional debut on 5 November, starting in a 12– home loss against UD Almería.[6]

On 6 August 2021, after featuring rarely, Fuoli moved to another reserve team, UD Almería B in Tercera División RFEF.[7] Initially a third-choice in the first team behind Fernando Martínez and Giorgi Makaridze, he was definitely promoted to the squad ahead of the 2022–23 campaign; despite the departure of the Georgian, he remained a third-choice after the arrival of Fernando Pacheco.[8]

Fuoli made his first team debut for the Rojiblancos on 13 November 2022, starting in a 2–0 away loss against CD Arenteiro, for the season's Copa del Rey.[9]
