Club career

Falcón was born in Cádiz, Andalusia. After beginning his football career at local Cádiz CF he was signed by Atlético Madrid aged 20 to finish his development, and he eventually battled for second-choice status for two seasons with another club graduate, Iván Cuéllar, appearing in five La Liga matches in 2005–06, the first being a 1–1 away draw against Athletic Bilbao on 3 December 2005 where he replaced the injured Leo Franco;[1] he also represented the reserves during his tenure.[2]

After a small loan stint in the Segunda División with Hércules CF,[3] Falcón was released (as Cuéllar) in July 2008 and joined another club at that level, RC Celta de Vigo.[4] He continued playing in that league afterwards, with Hércules,[5] AD Alcorcón,[6] Córdoba CF[7] and CD Tenerife.[8]
