Career[edit]

Born in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Lemos joined Deportivo de La Coruña's youth setup in 2005 at the age of 12, after starting out at SD Villestro.[1] He made his senior debuts with the former's reserves in 2011, in Tercera División.

In July 2013, after making the pre-season with the first team, Lemos suffered a serious knee injury,[2] only returning to the fields in March of the following year. On 21 July 2014 he was loaned to Segunda División B club SD Compostela, for one year.[3]

Lemos struggled with injuries during his time at Compos, appearing in just 19 competitive games.[4] On 17 July 2015, he signed with CD Lugo from Segunda División after agreeing to a three-year deal.[5]

On 9 September 2015, Lemos played his first professional match, coming on as a second-half substitute for David Ferreiro in a 1–0 away win against Córdoba CF for the season's Copa del Rey.[6] On 27 January of the following year he was handed a professional contract, being assigned the no. 14 jersey.[7]

On 5 July 2016, Lemos moved to La Liga side Celta de Vigo for five years.[8] He first appeared in the competition the following 28 January, starting and scoring the first goal in a 2–0 success at CD Leganés,[9] where he had already made his professional debut with his previous team.[10]

On 10 January 2018, after a six-month loan spell at RC Lens, Lemos returned to Lugo also in a temporary deal.[11] On 19 June, he signed a three-year contract with UD Las Palmas.[12]
