Club career

Medina was born in Barberà del Vallès, in the Province of Barcelona in Catalonia. He joined Valencia CF's youth system in 2009, aged 14. In July 2013, he moved to CE Sabadell FC and was assigned to the reserves in the regional leagues.
Medina featured regularly for the B-side, which was promoted to the Tercera División, and signed a new one-year deal with the club. On 24 August 2014, he played his first match as a professional, starting in a 2–3 home loss against Real Betis.
On 3 August 2016, free agent Medina signed a two-year contract with another reserve team, Celta de Vigo B of the Segunda División B. On 14 July 2018, he moved to another third-tier team, UE Cornellà, for the coming season.
Ahead of the 2019–20 season, he signed a two-year contract with Cornellà's sister club, Birmingham City of the English Championship. He made his debut on 6 August in the starting eleven for the EFL Cup first round visit to Portsmouth, partnering Craig Gardner in central midfield as two of the few experienced players in a team that lost 3–0. Four days later, he made his first Football League appearance as a late substitute in a 1–1 draw with Bristol City.
Having made no further first-team appearances, Medina rejoined Cornellà on 15 January 2020 on loan until 30 June. He made nine appearances, scored once, an equaliser at home to Gimnàstic de Tarragona, and was never on the losing side, before football in Spain was suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic. When it was confirmed that the promotion play-offs would take place, his loan spell was extended to cover the remainder of the season.
