Early years edit
Born in Cangas del Narcea, Asturias, Jony finished his youth career with FC Barcelona after a period with local Real Oviedo. He made his senior debut with the latter's reserves in the 2010–11 season, in the Tercera División.[2]
In June 2011, Jony moved to Segunda División B club Marino de Luanco.[3] He continued competing at that level the following years, representing Getafe CF B,[4] Real Avilés CF[5] and Sporting de Gijón B.[6]
Sporting Gijón edit
Jony signed a new two-year deal with the latter's first team on 7 May 2014.[7] He played his first match as a professional three days later, starting and scoring the first goal in a 2–1 home win over Hércules CF in the Segunda División.[8]
In the 2014–15 campaign, Jony contributed seven goals in 41 appearances as the Rojiblancos returned to La Liga after a three-year absence.[9] He made his debut in the competition on 23 August 2015, starting the 0–0 home draw against Real Madrid.[10]
Jony scored his first goal in the Spanish top flight on 23 September, but in a 2–1 loss at Rayo Vallecano.[11]
