Club career

Born in Santa Coloma de Gramenet, Barcelona, Catalonia, Baena joined Real Betis' youth setup in 2017, from CF Damm.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 14 April of the following year, coming on as a second-half substitute and scoring the equalizer in a 2–2 Segunda División B away draw against FC Jumilla.[2]

On 17 December 2019, after finishing his formation, Baena renewed with the Verdiblancos until 2022.[3] He was a regular starter during that campaign onwards, helping in the B's promotion to the third division and subsequent qualification to the newly-created Primera División RFEF.

On 29 June 2022, Baena signed a three-year contract with Segunda División side CD Lugo.[4] He made his professional debut on 15 August, starting in a 2–1 home loss against Albacete Balompié.[5] Baena scored his first professional goal on 2 October 2022, netting his team's second in a 3–2 loss at UD Ibiza.

On 17 July 2023, he moved to Polish second division side Wisła Kraków on a two-year deal.[6]
