On 7 July 2018, Genaro renewed his contract until 2021.[5] He made his first-team debut on 12 December 2019, starting and playing the full match in a 0–1 away loss against APOEL FC, on Sevilla's last group match of the 2019–20 UEFA Europa League.

On 5 October 2020, Genaro terminated his contract with the Nervionenses,[6] and signed a one-year contract with CD Mirandés in the second division just hours later.[7] He scored his first professional goal on 12 December, netting the game's only in an away success over CF Fuenlabrada.
