Club career

Born in Fontcoberta, Girona, Catalonia, Masó finished his development with Girona FC. On 16 April 2010, while still a junior, he made his professional debut, coming in as a late substitute in a 0–4 away loss against Levante UD for the Segunda División championship;[1] he was almost exclusively associated to the youth squad during his spell, however.

In summer 2010, Masó joined FC Barcelona, being initially assigned to the juniors. However, he did appear once with the B-team, playing the last 19 minutes in a 3–2 second level away win over Rayo Vallecano on 4 June 2011.[2] He was released in late July,[3] signing for Segunda División B club UE Llagostera shortly after.

Masó quickly established himself as a regular starter for his new club, being converted to a right back in the process. On 11 March 2015 he signed a contract extension with the Blanquivermells, penning a deal until 2017.[4]
