Club career edit
Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Pelegrí made his senior debut with Real Valladolid's reserves in Tercera División. He first arrived in Segunda División B in the summer of 2002, joining CP Cacereño after a short stint at UE Cornellà.
In July 2003, Pelegrí moved to UE Lleida also in the third level. He appeared in 27 games in his first season, helping his team promote to Segunda División after a three-year absence.
Pelegrí played his first match as a professional on 5 September 2004, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–0 away win against Cádiz CF.[1] He contributed with 20 appearances in the 2005–06 campaign, which finished in relegation.
Pelegrí subsequently resumed his career in the third and fourth levels, representing Orihuela CF, Águilas CF, CE Sabadell FC, UE Sant Andreu, CF Badalona[2] and Cornellà. He achieved promotion to division three with the latter club in 2014, featuring in 23 matches and scoring twice.
