Club career

Molinero was born in Ontígola, Province of Toledo, Castile-La Mancha. After playing two La Liga seasons for Atlético Madrid, in whose youth system he grew, he served a second division loan stint at Málaga CF.
In July 2007, free agent Molinero agreed to a two-year deal to RCD Mallorca. He appeared sparingly throughout the season, moving the following campaign to Levante UD, freshly relegated to the second level.
On 21 July 2009, Molinero signed with Romania's FC Dinamo București, leaving Spain for the first time in his career. He spent only one year in Liga I, however, cancelling his three-year contract in the summer and returning to his country, joining division two club SD Huesca.
In the 2011 off-season, Molinero signed with Real Murcia for three years. On 26 June 2014, after never appearing in less than 37 league matches, he moved to Real Betis also in the second tier; he achieved promotion in 2015, contributing to the feat with one goal.
On 25 June 2016, Molinero joined Getafe CF on a two-year contract.
