In 2023, after finishing his formation, Lago was initially assigned to the C-team in Tercera Federación, but never featured for the side after establishing himself as a regular for the B-team during the pre-season. He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 26 May 2024, starting in a 2–2 home draw against Valencia CF.[3][4][5]
