Club career edit

Born in Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Baró joined FC Barcelona's La Masia in June 2015, from lowly locals SD La Salle.[2] In 2017, after a one-year loan at CF Damm, he joined Valencia CF and was assigned to the Juvenil A squad.[3]

Baró made his senior debut with Valencia's reserves on 11 November 2017, starting in a 1–2 Segunda División B home loss against Hércules CF.[4] On 31 January 2019, after failing to make the breakthrough, he moved to another reserve team, CF Peralada-Girona B also in the third division.[5]

On 10 July 2019, Baró joined SD Leioa, still in the third division.[6] The following 29 January, after being a regular starter, he agreed to a three-and-a-half-year contract with Cádiz CF, being initially assigned to the B-team in the same category.[7]

In June 2020, Baró was called up to the main squad by manager Álvaro Cervera after the injury of Luismi Quezada,[8] and made his professional debut on 17 July, starting in a 0–1 loss at Girona FC as his side was already promoted.[9]

Baró made his La Liga debut on 23 January 2021, starting in a 0–3 loss at Sevilla FC.[10] On 22 July, he moved to Real Betis' B-side in Primera División RFEF.[11]
