Club career

Arqués was born in Alicante, Valencia. A product of Villarreal CF's youth system, he made his senior debuts while on loan at Orihuela CF in the 2011–12 campaign, in Segunda División B.[1]

On 8 September 2012 Arqués moved to another reserve team, Valencia CF Mestalla also in the third level.[2] He featured regularly for the side under the course of two seasons, being also an unused substitute in a 1–1 Copa del Rey home draw against Real Madrid on 23 January 2013.[3]

On 22 July 2014 Arqués signed a two-year deal with neighbouring Elche CF, being assigned to the B-team in the same division.[4] He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 25 April 2015, replacing Pedro Mosquera in the 85th minute of a 0–3 away loss against Atlético Madrid.[5]

On 18 August 2015 Arqués joined Sporting de Gijón B, also in the third division.[6] The following 9 August, he moved to fellow league team CD Alcoyano.[7]
