Born in Badajoz, Extremadura, Mesa started playing as a senior with CD Badajoz in the Segunda División B in 2011. On 27 June 2012 he moved to Rayo Vallecano, being assigned to the reserves also in the third level.[1]
On 2 January 2013 Mesa was loaned to fellow league team RSD Alcalá, until June.[2] After returning to Rayo he moved to neighbouring Atlético Madrid B. He scored 11 goals during the campaign, as they narrowly avoided relegation.
On 11 July 2014 Mesa signed a four-year deal with Recreativo de Huelva.[3] On 23 August he made his professional debut, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Real Zaragoza in the Segunda División.[4]
Mesa scored his first goal in the category on 13 December 2014, netting the last in a 2–4 home loss against UD Las Palmas.[5] He left Recre in 2017, and subsequently represented third division sides UD San Sebastián de los Reyes, Villarreal CF B, CF Rayo Majadahonda and Extremadura UD.[6]
