Club career

Born in Guadix, Granada, Andalusia, Casado joined Málaga CF's youth setup in June 2011, after representing UCD La Cañada Atlético, UD Almería and Guadix CF.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 13 March 2016, starting in a 3–0 Tercera División away defeat of Vélez CF.

Casado spent his first two seasons as a backup to Aarón Escandell, and renewed his contract until 2021 on 30 March 2017.[2] He subsequently shared the first-choice status with Kellyan, and achieved promotion to Segunda División B in 2018.

On 28 August 2019, Casado signed a three-year deal with Segunda División side AD Alcorcón.[3] He made his professional debut on 9 November, coming on as a second-half substitute for injured Dani Jiménez in a 1–1 away draw against UD Las Palmas.[4]

On 17 July 2021, Casado agreed to a one-year contract with Real Valladolid Promesas, after cutting ties with Alkor.[5]
