Gómez made his senior debut on 26 August 2018, coming on as a second-half substitute for Borja Lázaro in a 5–1 home routing of Salamanca CF.[2] He scored his first goal on 2 December, netting the last of a 4–0 thrashing of Internacional de Madrid,[3] and finished the campaign with two goals in 30 appearances as his side achieved a first-ever promotion to Segunda División.

Gómez made his professional debut on 15 September 2019, starting in a 0–2 away loss against CD Lugo.[4] The following 27 January, after just three league appearances during the campaign, he was loaned to Celta de Vigo B in the third division, until June.[5]
