Football career

Domínguez was born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa. Formed in Real Sociedad's youth system, he made his senior debut with the B-team in Segunda División B. On 2 March 2005 he played his first La Liga game, coming on as a substitute for Óscar de Paula in the 87th minute of a 2–1 home win against Real Zaragoza.[1]

Domínguez spent the following two seasons on loan, with SD Eibar (Segunda División) and Real Unión (third level), both in the Basque Country. In the summer of 2007, his contract expired and the free agent signed with UE Lleida in division three, only managing to score twice during the campaign.

Domínguez returned to Real Unión for 2008–09, helping the Irun club return to the second tier after 44 years but being immediately relegated back. On 30 June 2010 he signed with another side in that level, Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[2] However, he failed to impress during his tenure, and in January was loaned to former team Eibar until the end of the season.[3]

In late January 2012, Domínguez was released by Nàstic.[4] On 4 February, he signed a contract with third-tier club CD Guijuelo.[5]

Domínguez returned to Unión for a third spell on 4 July 2012,[6] going on to see out his career with the club in the third level and being immediately appointed its manager on 19 May 2018.[7]
