Club career
Barcelona
Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Fort signed for La Masia from PB Anguera, representing the club's Juvenil A side in the 2022–23 season and playing all six matches in their Youth League campaign.[2] The following year in Barcelona's preseason ahead of the 2023–24 season, Fort made his uncompetitive debut for the first team in a friendly match against Vissel Kobe on 6 June 2023. He was one of six players to make their debut for the first team.[3] Promoted towards Barcelona's reserve side, Fort made his debut for the squad on 28 August 2023 in a 1–0 defeat to SD Logroñés in their season opener of the Primera Federación.[4][5]
Fort made his senior debut for the first-team on 13 December 2023 in a 3–2 away defeat against Royal Antwerp in the Champions League.[6]
On 28 May 2024, Barcelona announced that they had reached an agreement with Fort for the extension of his contract, tying him to the club until 30 June 2026.[7][8]
Loan to Elche
On 1 September 2025, Fort was loaned to Elche for the season.[9] Later that year, he received the Goal of the Month award for his goal against Rayo Vallecano in December.[10]
International career
A Spanish youth international, Fort has represented the country since the under-16 level.[2] He was named in the under-17 squad for the 2023 UEFA European Under-17 Championship in Hungary,[11] and later that year was called up for the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Indonesia.[12] He also represented the Spain U19 during the 2025 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification.[13]
In August 2025, Fort was part of a 24-player preliminary squad for the 2025 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[14] However, he did not make the final cut.[15]
