Born in El Escorial, Community of Madrid, de la Fuente joined Real Madrid's La Fábrica in 2007, from CU Collado Villalba. On 10 January 2018, while still a youth, he signed a professional contract until 2022.
Promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B ahead of the 2018–19 season, de la Fuente made his senior debut on 26 August 2018, starting in a 2–0 home win over UD Las Palmas Atlético.

De la Fuente made his professional debut with the B-side on 14 August 2022, starting in a 2–0 away win over Racing de Santander. He scored his first professional goal on 3 September, netting the B's opener in a 3–0 home win over CD Mirandés.
