Born in Canals, Valencia,[1] Natalio played his first years as a professional with lowly clubs, being bought by Segunda División B's CD Castellón in 2005 and spending his first season on loan to FC Cartagena, also at that level.

[2] Returning for the 2006–07 campaign, with Castellón now in the Segunda División, Natalio scored a team-best 15 goals as the team managed to retain their league status.

[3] In that summer, he signed with UD Almería as both player and club had their first La Liga experience, and made his competition debut on 15 September 2007, playing 20 minutes in a 3–1 away loss against Real Madrid.

[8] A starter throughout the division two season,[9] he saw his team get relegated in the last matchday after a 1–1 draw at Girona FC (which in turn managed to stay afloat).

[14] On 14 July 2017, aged 32, Natalio moved abroad for the first time in his career and signed for China League One club Yunnan Lijiang FC.
