Career

Escudero was born in Alicante, Valencian Community, and joined Atlético de Madrid's youth setup at the age of 14, from hometown side Hércules CF.[1] On 21 July 2018, after finishing his formation, he was loaned to Segunda División B side UD San Sebastián de los Reyes for the season.[2]

Escudero made his senior debut on 26 August 2018, starting and scoring Sanse's first in a 2–2 away draw against Real Valladolid B.[3] On 7 August of the following year, he signed for Real Murcia also in the third division.[4]

On 29 January 2020, after being rarely used, Escudero left Murcia and joined Tercera División side CF Intercity.[5] On 9 July 2021, after helping the latter side in their promotion to Segunda División RFEF, he agreed to a deal with CD Alcoyano in Primera División RFEF.[6]

On 12 July 2022, Escudero moved to Gimnàstic de Tarragona also in division three.[7] On 7 July 2024, he joined fellow league team AD Ceuta FC.[8]

Escudero scored a career-best seven goals during the season as Ceuta achieved promotion to Segunda División. He made his professional debut at the age of 26 on 15 August 2025, starting in a 3–0 away loss to Real Valladolid.

On 19 January 2026, after just one further league match, Escudero terminated his link with the Caballas,[9] and returned to his first club Hércules hours later.[10]
