Club career
Callejón was born in Motril , Province of Granada . In 2005–06, he played in 33 games and scored eight goals for Real Madrid 's Juvenil A and, in March 2007, he made his senior debut for the B side ,[ 2] finishing the season in the Segunda División with that sole substitute appearance as they dropped down a level.[ 3]
In 2007–08 , Callejón played together with brother José as Real B were now in Segunda División B .[ 4] On 11 August 2008 he signed a four-year contract with RCD Mallorca , leaving in the same transfer window as his twin brother – the Balearic Islands club retained 75% of the player's rights.[ 5] He made his La Liga debut on 25 September 2008 in a 2–0 home win against CD Numancia , starting[ 6] in what would be his only league match in the entire campaign .[ 7]
On 25 August 2009, Callejón was loaned to Albacete Balompié of the second division in a season -long move.[ 8] He stayed in that league for 2010–11 , joining Córdoba CF in his native Andalusia on a free transfer .[ 9]
In January 2013, after 1+ 1 ⁄2 second-tier seasons of irregular playing time with Hércules CF ,[ 10] free agent Callejón signed for Levadiakos F.C. of Greece on a 1+ 1 ⁄2 -year deal.[ 11] In July, he switched clubs and countries again and joined Bolivia's Club Bolívar .[ 12] He scored four goals in twelve appearances in the latter's semi-final run in the Copa Libertadores and, on 30 November 2014, he netted a hat-trick in a 6–1 victory over Club Real Potosí to keep his team on top of the Liga de Fútbol Profesional Boliviano , and him as the top scorer;[ 13] in a 2–1 defeat of the same opponents on 19 March 2015, both he and teammate Jhasmani Campos were sent off for retaliation.[ 14]
After finishing the 2016 Apertura as top scorer with 16 goals, including one in the final lost to The Strongest ,[ 15] Callejón left Bolívar in January 2017 for the Saudi Professional League 's Ettifaq FC , managed by compatriot Juan Carlos Garrido .[ 16] Having scored twice in 26 games, he rescinded his contract with the club from Dammam in December.[ 17]
Callejón returned to Bolívar in January 2018, a year after leaving them.[ 18] On 17 March 2019, with a goal against Sport Boys Warnes in a 4–1 win, he became the seventh player in the league's history to reach 100 goals.[ 19] Seven months later, he added five more in a 7–2 drubbing of Club Deportivo Guabirá .[ 20] He finished the year's Clausura tournament with 19 goals, tied with Carlos Saucedo and Jair Reinoso as top scorer; his tally of 36 goals for the calendar year was second-most for a Spaniard abroad, after Bienvenido Marañón 's 40 in the Philippines.[ 21]
Callejón ended his seven years of playing abroad on 30 December 2019, when he signed an 18-month deal at third-tier Marbella FC in his home region.[ 22] In July 2021, the 34-year-old joined Primera Federación side San Fernando CD on a one-year deal.[ 23]
