Career
Born in Paiporta, Valencian Community, Obón represented UD Almería as a youth, and made his senior debut with the reserves on 12 September 2021, in a 0–0 Tercera División RFEF away draw against CD Huétor Tájar.[1] After spending his first season as a backup to Diego Fuoli, he was a regular starter in his second.
Obón was again a second-choice during the 2023–24 campaign, acting as a backup to Bruno Iribarne as Almería B achieved promotion to Segunda Federación. On 1 August 2024, he moved to Orihuela CF also in the fourth division.[2]
On 9 July 2025, Obón joined another reserve team, Deportivo Aragón still in division four.[3] He made his first team debut the following 31 May, coming on as a half-time substitute for Adrián Rodríguez in a 2–0 Segunda División home loss to Málaga CF, as Zaragoza was already relegated.[4]
On 23 June 2026, Obón signed for Primera Federación side Arenas Club de Getxo.[5]
