Football career

After playing for Real Valladolid B, Santacruz joined Valencia CF's reserves. On 10 April 2005 he made his first and only La Liga appearance, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–2 home draw against Málaga CF.

Subsequently, Santacruz appeared one season apiece for Real Madrid's C and B sides, suffering relegation from the second division with the latter outfit in 2007. After that, he returned to the third level and played in that category for AD Ceuta, CD Linares and UB Conquense (one season each).

In the 2010 summer 27-year old Santacruz returned to the second level, joining Albacete Balompié. He left in the following transfer window however, without one single official appearance, and resumed his career in division three.
