Club career

Born in Zaragoza, Falcón played several years with hometown club Real Zaragoza, but was registered mostly for their reserves. In the 2004–05 season he appeared twice in La Liga with the first team, and also served a loan with UD Almería in the second division whilst under contract to the Aragonese; his top flight debut came on 6 February 2005, in a 1–2 away loss against Albacete Balompié where he came on as a substitute for David Villa late into the second half after Luis García was sent off.[1]

Released in 2005, Falcón resumed his career in the second and third levels (with also brief spells in the fourth), successively representing Villanueva CF, SD Eibar, SD Huesca, Rayo Vallecano, CD La Muela, CF Atlético Ciudad, CD Leganés and CD Teruel.
