Hernández made his debut as a senior on 26 November 2011, appearing with the reserves in a 0–3 home loss against SD Ponferradina in the Segunda División B championship. On 10 June of the following year he was definitely promoted to the B-team, and went on to appear regularly for the side in the following campaigns.
On 17 December Hernández made his first team debut, replacing Alfreð Finnbogason in a 2–0 home win against Real Oviedo, for the campaign's Copa del Rey. He made his La Liga debut four days later, again from the bench in a 1–1 away draw against Levante UD.
