Football career

After starting playing football with amateurs Club de Fútbol Valdepeñas, Vellisca began his professional career at local Getafe CF, before joining UD Salamanca in 1993. From the start, he was an undisputed first-choice, never playing in less than 34 league matches, while also experiencing two La Liga promotions and as many relegations to the second division. In the 1997–98 season, as the team maintained its top flight status, he participated in a 4–1 win against eventual champions FC Barcelona at the Camp Nou.

From 1999–2004, Vellisca played with Real Zaragoza, totalling 104 league matches with eight goals in his first three seasons. After helping the Aragonese to a 2003 first division return, he was only a fringe player in the following campaign, and left the side with two domestic cups.

Vellisca retired in 2008 at the age of nearly 37, after having spent two seasons each with UD Almería (51 matches, two goals in level two) and lowly Logroñés CF.
