Club career
Born in Castelldefels, Barcelona, Catalonia, Alarcón started his footballing career at the age of four with amateur side Vista Alegre, where both of his parents played.[2] He joined Barcelona in 2018 from Espanyol, going on to make his debut for the Barcelona Atlètic side in 2021.[2][3] A ruptured ACL during the semi-final of the Copa de Campeones Juvenil de Fútbol saw him miss the entirety of the 2021–22 season.[2]
On 18 January 2023, having scored twelve goals for the club's Juvenil A team, he was named in the Barcelona senior squad for the Copa del Rey game against Ceuta the following day.[4][5] He made his professional debut as Barcelona went on to beat Ceuta 5–0, coming on as a substitute for Raphinha. Since then, Alarcon has played four more times for the Barcelona senior side and has been a reasonably consistent presence in Xavi’s matchday squad selections.[6]
On 29 August 2024, Alarcón signed with Portuguese club Porto and was assigned to the reserves squad Porto B in Liga Portugal 2.[7]
On 26 January 2026, Porto sent Alarcón on loan to Eredivisie club Utrecht until the end of the 2025–26 season, with an optional buy-clause of €2 million.[8][9] Four months later, after scoring 3 goals in 13 Eredivisie appearances, the clause was triggered and he joined the Dutch side on a three-year contract.[10][11]
International career
Alarcón has represented Spain at youth international level.[12]
