Club career

Domínguez was born in Granollers, Barcelona, Catalonia, and represented CE Sabadell FC as a youth before making his senior debut with the reserves on 6 December 2014, starting in a 1–2 Tercera División home loss against UE Castelldefels. After one further match for the B-side, he moved to RCD Espanyol and was assigned back to the youth setup.

In 2016, Domínguez was loaned to CF Damm for one year, to finish his formation; upon returning, he was assigned to Espanyol's B-team also in the fourth division. He featured sparingly for the side, and renewed his contract until 2020 on 22 March 2018.[1]

On 10 July 2018, after achieving promotion, Domínguez agreed to a three-year deal with another reserve team, Deportivo Alavés B still in division four.[2] On 28 August of the following year, after another promotion, he moved to UD Las Palmas and was initially assigned to the B-side in Segunda División B.[3]

Domínguez made his first team debut on 20 July 2020, starting in a 5–1 home routing of Extremadura UD for the Segunda División championship.[4] He began the 2020–21 campaign as a backup to Álvaro Valles, but was made a starter by manager Pepe Mel in November after a poor run of form from Valles.[5]
