Club career
Born in Armilla, Granada, Machado finished his graduation with Elche CF, making his senior debuts with the reserves in Tercera División. On 2 November 2003 he played his first official game with the main squad, coming in as a late substitute in a 2–2 home draw against Ciudad de Murcia for the Segunda División championship;[1] he was almost exclusively associated to the B's during his spell, however.
In the following eight years Machado competed in Segunda División B, with Villajoyosa CF, CD Alcoyano, Real Betis B and Real Jaén.[2] He achieved promotion at the end of the 2012–13 season with the latter, scoring three goals in 36 matches.
