Club career

[edit]

Tenerife

[edit]

Born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Jorge started playing in CD Tenerife's youth setup. He made his senior debut with the reserves in the 2012–13 season, in Tercera División.

Jorge played his first match as a professional on 4 January 2015, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Sporting de Gijón in the Segunda División.[3] On 20 August, he was definitely promoted to the first team.[4]

On 31 January 2016, Jorge was sent off for two bookings in the first half of a 2–1 loss at Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[5] He scored his first league goal on 21 January 2018, but in a 1–3 home defeat to FC Barcelona B.[6]

Valencia

[edit]

Jorge signed a five-year contract with La Liga club Valencia CF on 25 February 2019 for a transfer fee of €3 million, effective as of 1 July.[7] On 15 July, he joined RC Celta de Vigo in the same league on a two-year loan,[8] with an option to make the deal permanent for €7 million as Maxi Gómez moved in the opposite direction.[9] He made his debut in the competition two months later, receiving a straight card in the tenth minute on an eventual 2–0 home loss against Granada CF.[10]

On 28 July 2021, Jorge was loaned to C.S. Marítimo of the Portuguese Primeira Liga for one year.[11] The following 29 January, however, he moved to CD Mirandés back in his home country also in a temporary deal.[12]

Leganés

[edit]

On 5 July 2022, Jorge joined CD Leganés also in the second division, on a one-year loan with a buyout clause.[13] In July 2023, he agreed to a permanent two-year contract.[14]

Personal life

[edit]

Jorge's older brother, Germán, was also a footballer. He too was developed at Tenerife.[15]
