Club career

Molina was born in Almería, Andalusia. He made his senior debuts for UD Almería's reserve team, playing several seasons in Tercera División.

Molina played his first match as a professional on 13 March 2005, starting in a 0–3 away loss against Córdoba CF for the Segunda División championship.[1] He only appeared in his second match for the main squad on 17 June 2007, being sent off in the fifth minute of a 3–0 home success against UD Vecindario.[2]

On 25 July 2007 Molina moved to Alicante CF, in the third level.[3] He renewed his link on 28 June of the following year, as his side were promoted to the second division,[4] but acted mainly as a backup to Jesús Unanua; he rescinded his link on 30 December 2008,[5] and signed for Orihuela CF three days later.[6]

On 12 July 2011 Molina joined third division's CF Badalona.[7] A backup to longtime incumbent Marcos, he moved to fellow league team UCAM Murcia CF in June of the following year.

On 1 August 2013, free agent Molina moved to CD Español del Alquián, in the regional leagues.[8]
