Born in Elche, Alicante, Valencian Community, Germán joined RCD Espanyol's youth setup in 2007 from local Elche CF, aged 14. He made his senior debut with the B-team, in Tercera División.
On 26 August 2013, Germán signed a new four-year deal with the Catalans, being also promoted to the main squad.[1] On 8 December he played his first game as a professional, starting in a 2–2 away draw against Real Jaén in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey (eventual 4–2 aggregate win).[2]
Germán first appeared in La Liga on 6 April 2014, taking the place of suspended Kiko Casilla in a 1–4 loss at Sevilla FC.[3] On 22 January of the following year, after losing his backup position to another youth graduate, Pau López, he was loaned to Segunda División club Racing de Santander until June.[4]
On 18 August 2015, Germán moved to fellow league team Girona FC in a season-long loan deal.[5] He played understudy to Isaac Becerra during his spell, and terminated his contract with Espanyol on 5 August 2016.[6]
On 6 August 2016, Germán returned to his first club Elche.[7] The following summer, he signed for UCAM Murcia CF in Segunda División B;[8] two years later, he joined UD Ibiza in the same league, agreeing to a contract until 30 June 2020 with the option for an additional season.[9]
