Playing career

Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Pérez made his senior debut with Zamudio SD in Tercera División. After a one-year spell with CD Aurrerá de Vitoria, he joined Athletic Bilbao; initially assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B, his first La Liga match with the first team occurred on 15 February 1998 when came on as a 52nd-minute substitute for Mikel Lasa in a 0–3 home loss against Valencia CF; he scored his only goal for them in the penultimate group stage fixture of the 1998–99 UEFA Champions League, a 2–1 away defeat to Rosenborg BK.

In 1999, Pérez moved to another top-flight club, CD Numancia. The following year, he signed for CF Extremadura of the Segunda División.

In the summer of 2002, Pérez joined UD Almería still in the second division. After being ever-present during the 2003–04 season, he agreed to a contract at Córdoba CF.

Following a six-month spell at third-tier side UB Conquense, Pérez signed with Lorca Deportiva CF one level above in July 2006. After suffering relegation he took his game to the lower leagues, representing in quick succession CD Roquetas, Caravaca CF, Lorca Deportiva, Lorca Atlético CF and CA Pulpileño; at the age of 36, he retired.

Coaching career
