Club career

Born in Premià de Mar, Barcelona, Catalonia, Roca made his senior debuts with UE Rubí. In the 2010 summer he joined Gimnàstic de Tarragona, after a stint at CD Blanes; he was assigned to the farm team in Tercera División.

On 8 September 2011 Roca played his first match as a professional, starting in a 0–6 away loss against Valladolid, in that season's Copa del Rey.[1] He would spend the vast majority of his spell with the reserves, however.

On 19 July 2012 Roca signed for Segunda División B club CD Atlético Baleares.[2] In September, however, he rescinded his link, and joined Terrassa FC in the fourth division on 8 October.[3]

On 15 July 2013 Roca returned to Pobla,[4] and appeared regularly during the campaign. In July 2014, he moved to Primera Catalana side UE Morell.[5]

Roca joined Inter Club d'Escaldes in Andorra on 1 February 2020, after representing local sides CF Vilanova and CF Ampolla.[6]
