Born in Tudela de Duero, Valladolid, Castile and León, Miguel joined Real Valladolid's youth setup in 2013, aged 13.[1] On 26 March 2017, aged just 17, he made his senior debut with the reserves by starting in a 0–0 away draw against Burgos CF for the Segunda División B championship.

On 20 November 2017, Miguel renewed his contract until 2021.[2] Six days later he scored his first senior goal, netting the equalizer for the B-team in a 1–1 draw at Pontevedra CF.

On 21 October 2018, Miguel made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, coming on as a late substitute for Enes Ünal in a 1–0 away defeat of Real Betis.[3] On 1 October 2020, he was loaned to Segunda División side CD Leganés for one year.[4]
