Club career
editBorn in Artà, Balearic Islands, and a product of local RCD Mallorca's youth system, Abdón made his debut as a senior at the age of only 17, going on to spend several seasons in the Segunda División B with the reserves.[1] On 13 December 2011 he made his first appearance with the main squad, playing two minutes in a 0–1 home loss against Sporting de Gijón in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey.[2]
On 28 April 2012, Abdón appeared in his first La Liga game, coming off the bench for Víctor Casadesús in the 3–1 win at Getafe CF.[3] On 23 August of the following year he was loaned to third-division club Burgos CF,[4] returning at the end of the campaign to Mallorca's first team, now competing in the Segunda División.
Abdón scored his first professional goal on 21 September 2014, but in a 4–6 home defeat to CA Osasuna.[5] He terminated his contract the next transfer window,[6] and signed with CD Tenerife of the same league shortly after.[7]
On 3 July 2015, Abdón signed a two-year deal with CD Mirandés also in the second tier.[8] He left the Estadio Municipal de Anduva by mutual consent in January 2017,[9] and agreed terms with Racing de Santander later that day.[10] He scored a career-best 14 goals – in only 19 matches – for the latter, but they failed to promote to division two.[11]
Abdón returned to Mallorca in summer 2017, with the side now in the third division.[12] Under Vicente Moreno, he was part of the squads that achieved two promotions in two years,[13] totalling 18 goals in the process.[14][15][16]
Abdón started 2023–24 strongly, scoring four times in as many matches in spite of limited playing time.[17] He was also joint-top scorer of the year's Spanish Cup at six, helping the club to reach the final for the first time since 2003.[18][19]
