Football career

Born in Santa Coloma de Gramanet, Barcelona, Catalonia, Dimas was a product of local UDA Gramenet. In 2006, he moved to FC Barcelona's reserves, helping them return to Segunda División B in his second season.

For the 2008–09 campaign, Dimas joined CD Numancia for his La Liga debut,[1] which occurred on 25 September 2008 in a 0–2 away loss against RCD Mallorca.[2] He was regularly played as the Soria club was eventually relegated back after just one year.

From 2009 to 2015, Dimas competed in Segunda División, dropping down a level with FC Cartagena and Recreativo de Huelva. On 3 August 2015, aged 32, he moved abroad for the first time, signing a one-year deal with A-League side Western Sydney Wanderers FC and sharing teams with countrymen Alberto and Andreu.[3]
