Career
Gómez was born in Santander, Cantabria, and was a Racing de Santander youth graduate. On 5 July 2024, he was loaned to Segunda Federación side UM Mescobedo for one year.[1]
Gómez made his senior debut on 8 September 2024, starting in a 1–0 away loss to CD Laredo. A first-choice during the most of the season as the club suffered relegation, he returned to Racing in July 2025, being assigned to the reserves also in the fourth division.
A third-choice in the first team behind Jokin Ezkieta and Plamen Andreev, Gómez became a first-choice ahead of the match against Real Valladolid, as Ezkieta was out due to an injury and Andreev was due to be recalled by Feyenoord.[2] He made his professional debut on 3 January 2026, starting in a 1–1 draw at the José Zorrilla Stadium.[3][4]
Personal life
Gómez's father Vichi was also a footballer and a goalkeeper.[1][5] He too played for Escobedo, aside from representing SD Noja in Segunda División B.[6]
