Club career
A product of Real Betis' youth system, Isidoro made his first appearance with the first team in a 1–1 draw against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu, in a Copa del Rey game, with Betis winning the tie on the away goals rule. Under the guidance of manager Luis Fernández he played six consecutive La Liga matches (all starts) after his debut on 17 February 2007, also against Real Madrid and away (0–0 draw); he was promoted to the main squad at the same time as Juande, but remained registered with the B-side for a further three full seasons.
Isidoro appeared in 31 games for the Andalusians in the 2010–11 campaign, as they returned to the top division after a two-year absence. On 27 August 2012 he moved abroad, signing a two-year contract with Polish club Polonia Warsaw; he was released on 25 November, after only five official appearances.
In the following years, Isidoro competed in his country's second level, in representation of CD Numancia, Elche CF and UD Almería.
