Club career edit
Born in Écija, Seville, Andalusia, Delgado joined Real Madrid's La Fábrica in 2011, from hometown club Écija Balompié. He left the club in July 2017, and subsequently signed a three-year deal with Real Betis.[1]
Delgado made his senior debut with the reserves on 19 December 2018, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–1 Tercera División away win against Conil CF.[2] On 10 October 2020, he renewed his contract until 2024.[3]
Delgado made his first team debut on 6 January 2021, replacing Emerson Royal late into a 1–3 away win against UD Mutilvera, for the season's Copa del Rey.[4] His professional debut occurred eleven days later, as he again replaced Emerson in a 2–0 win at Sporting de Gijón, also for the national cup.[5]
On 10 July, Portuguese club S.C. Farense, newly-promoted to the Primeira Liga, announced the signing of Delgado on a two-year contract, with an option for a further year.[6]
