Club career

Born in La Gineta, Albacete, Castile-La Mancha, Rangel graduated from local Albacete Balompié's youth system, making his senior debuts with the reserves in the 2005–06 season, in Tercera División. On 3 June 2007 he made his professional debut, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Xerez CD, for the Segunda División championship.[1]

In the 2008 summer Rangel left Alba, and competed in Segunda División B but also in the fourth level in the following seasons, representing Sangonera Atlético CF, UD Almansa[2] and UB Conquense.[3] With the latter he achieved promotion at the end of the 2012–13 season, appearing in 33 matches and scoring twice.

On 6 August 2014 Rangel moved to CD Guadalajara, also in the third level.[4]
