Club career

Born in Valencia, Higón joined local Levante UD's youth academy in 2004, aged 13.[1] Six years later he was promoted to the reserve team, playing in Tercera División.

On 27 October 2010, Higón made his first-team debut in a Copa del Rey match against Xerez CD, starting and playing 77 minutes in a 3–2 away win (4–4 aggregate success).[2] He first appeared in La Liga on 7 January 2012, coming on as a substitute for Nabil El Zhar for the last 12 minutes of a 0–0 home draw against RCD Mallorca.[3]

After leaving the Estadi Ciutat de València, Higón competed exclusively in his country's lower leagues.[4][5] The exception to this was in the 2014–15 season, when he appeared rarely for Cypriot First Division club Doxa Katokopias FC before returning to his homeland.
