Club career

edit

Born in Sils, Girona, Catalonia, Dalmau started playing football for his hometown club, moving to FC Barcelona's youth system La Masia at the age of 13.[1] Still a junior, on 18 April 2010, he made his senior debut with the reserves in the Segunda División B, starting against UE Lleida in a 2–0 home win;[2] they returned to Segunda División after an 11-year absence.[3]

In the following seasons, Dalmau alternated between the second and third tiers, representing Valencia CF Mestalla, Cádiz CF,[4] CD Lugo,[5] Córdoba CF[6] and Hércules CF.[7] In October 2017, he signed with Levante UD to bolster the B side following Iván López's severe knee injury,[8] but was released shortly after in order to move to Romanian team Sepsi OSK Sfântu Gheorghe.[9]

On 3 August 2018, Dalmau agreed to a two-year contract at Lleida Esportiu.[10]
