Club career
Gaspar was born in Córdoba, Andalusia. A product of Atlético Madrid's youth system, he made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 3 January 1999 in a 3–2 away win against Racing de Santander where he came on as a late subs*ute, and alternated between the A and the B-sides for several years; at the end of his second professional season, the former were relegated.
After a six-month spell at Real Oviedo, with another top flight relegation, Gaspar signed with Real Valladolid for two seasons, after which he was re-bought by Atlético. He was released after one year, and was subsequently successively relegated from the top division with Albacete Balompié (where he scored his first goal as a professional, in a 1–1 draw at Levante UD on 18 December 2004) and Deportivo Alavés.
Gaspar then played two more years in the second level with the Basques, returning to hometown's Córdoba CF in 2008 also in that tier and alternating between the starting XI and the bench until his release in June 2013.
