Born in Reus, Tarragona, Catalonia, Folch made his senior debut with local CA Roda de Barà in the Primera Catalana. In the 2008 summer he signed for fellow league team FC Vilafranca,[1] and represented FC Cambrils the following campaign.[2]

In July 2010, Folch joined Tercera División side CF Amposta.[3] After being a regular starter, he moved to UB Conquense in July 2012, and achieved promotion to Segunda División B at the end of the season.

On 11 July 2013, Folch agreed to a contract with CF Reus Deportiu, a club he already represented as a youth.[4] He renewed his contract on 14 June of the following year,[5] and contributed with 38 appearances during the 2015–16 campaign as his side was promoted to Segunda División for the first time ever.

Folch made his professional debut on 20 August, starting in a 1–0 away win against RCD Mallorca.[6] He scored his first professional goal on 25 September, netting the first in a 1–1 home draw against Rayo Vallecano.

On 26 November 2016, Folch scored a brace in a 2–2 draw at Real Zaragoza. The following 30 June, he signed a two-year contract with fellow second tier club Real Oviedo.[7]

On 1 July 2019, Folch agreed to a deal with Elche CF also in the second division.[8]

gollark: ... why is it working now? This buffer is ridiculously tiny.
gollark: Must I have ANOTHER threadoid which receives data and sticks it in a queue or something?
gollark: The `.read` is being done inside the `OggStream` code probably maybe.
gollark: It plays a large chunk of audioforms very fast and complains about dropped packets.
gollark: I tried using `io.BufferedReader(bytestream, buffer_size=2**19)` in place of it, but it appears to have worsened things.
