Club career

Betis

Born in Plasencia, Province of Cáceres, Extremadura, Alegría finished his development with CP Cacereño, and made his senior debut in the Segunda División B during the 2010–11 season. On 18 July 2012, he signed a two-year contract with Real Betis, being assigned to the reserves also in the third division.[1]

Alegría agreed to a new deal with the Andalusians on 11 July 2014 after scoring nine goals in the 2013–14 campaign.[2] He made his professional debut on 1 March 2015, coming on as a second half substitute for Francisco Portillo in a 0–0 away draw against CD Mirandés in the Segunda División.[3]

On 8 July 2015, Alegría renewed his link until 2017, being immediately loaned to CD Numancia of the second tier.[4] He appeared in his first match for the club on 23 August, playing 12 minutes and scoring a brace in the 6–3 home win over CD Tenerife.[5]

On 15 June 2016, after 42 competitive games at the Nuevo Estadio Los Pajaritos, Alegría was definitively promoted to Betis' first team.[6] He made his debut in La Liga on 11 September of that year, starting in a 3–2 away victory against Valencia CF.[7]

Alegría scored his first goals in the Spanish top flight on 16 September 2016, a brace in a 2–2 home draw with Granada CF.[8] The following 29 January, he put the hosts ahead in an eventual 1–1 draw against FC Barcelona also at the Estadio Benito Villamarín.[9]

On 29 June 2017, Alegría was loaned to fellow top-division club Levante UD for one year.[10] He suffered a knee injury in November, being sidelined for the remainder of the campaign.[11]

On 31 August 2018, Alegría joined Rayo Vallecano on a one-year loan.[12][13] The following 31 January, however, he moved to Sporting de Gijón also in a temporary deal.[14]

Mallorca

On 2 July 2019, Alegría agreed to a five-year contract with RCD Mallorca as a free agent.[15] The following 24 January, after being sparingly used, he moved to second division side Extremadura UD on loan for the remainder of the campaign.[16]

Alegría signed with Real Zaragoza also in the second tier on 19 January 2021, on loan until the end of the season.[17] On 18 August, he joined Burgos CF of the same league also in a temporary deal.[18]

On 1 September 2022, Alegría moved to Primera Federación club CF Fuenlabrada on a one-year loan.[19] His loan was terminated the following 31 January, and he left Mallorca shortly after.[20]
