Born in Madrid, Spain, in 1996, Galán grew up in Leganés and discovered padel at a young age, quickly developing into one of Spain’s most promising junior players.
He made his World Padel Tour debut in 2016 alongside Juan Cruz Belluati, establishing himself on the professional circuit and reaching the top levels of the game within just a few seasons.
In 2018, he partnered with Matías Díaz and claimed his first World Padel Tour title at the Valladolid Open, later adding a second title in Lugo.
After a successful 2019 season with Juani Mieres and Pablo Lima, Galán joined forces with Juan Lebrón in 2020. Together, they became one of the most dominant partnerships in padel, reaching the World No. 1 ranking and finishing three consecutive seasons at the top of the World Padel Tour rankings from 2020 to 2022.
Galán continued to establish himself among the sport’s elite with his powerful and dynamic style of play, collecting titles alongside several of the greatest players of his generation.
In 2024, he began a new chapter of his career with Federico Chingotto. The partnership quickly became one of the strongest pairs on the professional circuit, winning major Premier Padel titles and consistently challenging for the top spot in the FIP rankings.
He won the FIP World Padel Championship with Spain in 2021 in Doha and the World Padel National Couples Championship in 2018 in Asunción.
In 2025, Galán and Chingotto made history by winning the inaugural FIP World Cup Pairs in Kuwait, becoming the first men’s pair officially crowned FIP World Champions.
