Beginnings

Born in Castellón de la Plana , Fornals began his football training at ACD Benicense and moved to the youth department of Villarreal CF in 2003 , where he played for five years before moving on to the CD Castellón in his hometown . In 2012, at the age of 16, he joined the offspring of FC Málaga , where he played for the first time in the 2014/15 season in the reserve team, which played in the fourth-rate Tercera División .

Málaga CF

He made his first-team debut on September 26, 2015 (6th matchday) in a 0-0 draw against Real Madrid . Fornals quickly established himself as a rotation player for the first division in his first season in 2015/16 . His first league goal was on November 28 (13th matchday) in a 2-2 draw against Granada CF in La Rosaleda . This hit was his only one in 27 league appearances this season.

In the following season 2016/17 he established himself in the starting lineup of the Malaguistas . On December 4, 2016 (14th matchday), he marked the first brace of his career in men's football in a 2-2 draw against Valencia CF. He equalized the final score in the 93rd minute of the game. This season he scored six goals and made three assists in 32 league games.

Villarreal CF

Fornals returned to their youth club Villarreal on July 24, 2017 . The Submarino Amarillo paid a transfer fee of 12 million euros for the midfielder and equipped him with a five-year contract. He made his debut on August 21, 2017 (1st matchday) in the 0-1 away defeat against the UD Levante . At his new club he has been an undisputed regular player since his arrival and on December 17 (16th matchday) he scored the decisive goal for the 1-0 win in the away game against Celta Vigo . On January 13th (19th matchday) he scored the winning goal in the 87th minute of the game to make it 1-0 in the away game at Real Madrid , giving his team the very first victory in the club's history at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu . In this 2017/18 season , however, he was able to distinguish himself primarily as a goal setter. He scored four goals and made 13 assists in 46 competitive appearances.

He could not confirm this submission quota in the following season 2018/19 , but he was still considered a regular starter. On February 21, 2019, he equalized the 1-1 final in the second leg of the second round of the UEFA Europa League against Sporting Lisbon , which ensured his team's progress. He finished the season with five goals and six assists, which he was able to collect in 50 competitive games across all competitions.

West Ham United

On August 10, 2019 (1st matchday), he made his debut in the 5-0 home defeat against Manchester City for his new club when he came on for Michail Antonio at half-time . Two and a half weeks later he scored his first goal in a 2-0 league cup win against the lower class club AFC Newport County . In his first season he scored two goals and made five assists in 36 league games.
