After the club's promotion to La Liga, it was announced on 18 August 2016 that Galilea would return to the B-side, but still being involved with the first team.[5] He scored his first senior goal ten days later, netting the second in a 4–0 Tercera División home routing of Santutxu FC.

On 16 January 2017, despite being injured, Galilea renewed his contract for two more seasons.[6] Roughly one year later, he was loaned to NK Rudeš until June.[7]
