Club career
Early years
Born in Salamanca, Castile and León, Óscar began his career with Real Valladolid, making his first-team – and La Liga – debut in the 1–0 home win over UD Las Palmas on 7 October 2001, one month shy of his 19th birthday. Establishing himself as a regular by the start of the 2002–03 season, he was the side's best scorer in the following year at 10, in spite of a final relegation.[1]
Zaragoza
Subsequently Óscar moved to Real Zaragoza, where he was a regular fixture throughout four seasons, whether as a starter or a substitute. His best scoring output came during his first season, with six goals (two being in a 2–2 draw at CA Osasuna[2]).
Olympiacos
After Zaragoza's relegation in 2007–08, Óscar joined Olympiacos F.C. on a three-year deal during the summer transfer season, joining countryman Ernesto Valverde's roster.[3] During his two-year spell he played in a total of 68 games and netted nine times, but his performances were irregular overall.
Helping to the Piraeus club double in his first season, Óscar also scored in the 2008–09 UEFA Cup, in a 1–2 away loss against AS Saint-Étienne (2–5 on aggregate) for the round-of-32.[4]
Return to Valladolid
On 1 September 2010, Olympiacos parted ways with Óscar, who signed a one-year contract with his first professional club Valladolid, now playing in the Segunda División.[5] On 20 July 2011, he signed a two-year extension, with the option of making his link a permanent one.[6]
In the 2011–12 season Óscar netted 14 goals, as the Pucelanos returned to the top flight after two years.[7] Playing more as a second striker in 2014–15, he bettered that total to 16 as the team again competed in the second tier.[8][9]
