Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Recio only played amateur football in his country, representing UE Rapitenca, CF Amposta and CD Tortosa. In June 2010 he was signed by Kitchee SC in Hong Kong, reuniting with former teammate – at the first two clubs – Ubay Luzardo (also a stopper). The club's manager, compatriot Josep Gombau, had tried to acquire the player in the previous transfer window, but failed. [2]

On 17 October 2013, general manager Ken Ng announced that Recio had renewed his contract until 2016. On 29 May of the following year he won the Hong Kong Player of the Year Award for 2013–14 season, receiving a HK$35,000 prize. [3]

Following Kitchee's victory in the 2018–19 Hong Kong FA Cup, it was announced that Recio would leave the club. [4] On 19 July 2019, the 36-year-old signed for Lee Man FC of the same country and league. [5]

International career

Recio received his Hong Kong passport in October 2017, at the age of 34, alongside compatriots Dani Cancela and Jordi Tarrés. [6] He made his debut for the national team on 5 October, in a 4–0 friendly win over Laos. [7]
