After failing to win competition over veteran Ismael Falcón, Palomares agreed to a one-year deal with fellow third division side Mérida AD on 7 July 2022.[5] The following 31 May, after establishing himself as a first-choice, he renewed his contract for two further seasons.[6]

On 10 July 2025, Palomares joined Segunda División side CD Mirandés on a one-year deal.[7] He made his professional debut on 17 August, starting in a 1–0 away loss to Cádiz CF.[8]

On 7 July 2026, after suffering relegation, Palomares agreed to a one-year contract with CD Eldense, also in division two.[9]
