Club career

Born in Zamora, Castile and León, Salvador represented Zamora CF as a youth. On 7 April 2012, aged only 17, he made his senior debut by starting in a 2–0 home win against Sestao River in the Segunda División B championship.

Salvador was promoted to the first team ahead of the 2012–13 season, and began to appear more regularly in the following campaigns. He scored his first senior goal on 5 January 2014, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against CD Guijuelo.

On 31 July 2015, after Zamora's relegation, Salvador joined fellow third-tier club CD Lealtad. However, Zamora announced that they retained the player seven days later, but he signed for Sestao on 1 September after rescinding his contract.

On 28 July 2016 Salvador moved to Sporting de Gijón, being initially assigned to the reserves in Tercera División. He made his first team debut on 21 December, coming on as a late substitute for Nacho Cases in a 1–3 away loss against SD Eibar for the season's Copa del Rey.

Salvador was definitely promoted to the main squad in Segunda División ahead of the 2018–19 season, after agreeing to a new three-year contract. He scored his first professional goal on 3 March 2019, netting the opener in a 2–1 away success over CD Numancia.

On 7 June 2021, Salvador signed a three-year deal with SD Huesca also in the second division. On 31 July 2023, he moved to fellow league team Elche CF on a two-year contract.

On 10 January 2025, Elche announced the transfer of Salvador to Chinese club Tianjin Jinmen Tiger FC.
