Club career






= Espanyol

Born in Vilobí d'Onyar, Girona, Catalonia, Coro was a product of Espanyol's youth system. He made his first-team debut on 2 November 2003 in a 2–0 home loss to Real Zaragoza, but spent his first professional seasons with the reserve side in the Segunda División B.
In the last matchday of 2005–06, on 13 May 2006, Coro scored a last-minute goal against Real Sociedad, with that 1–0 win saving Espanyol's La Liga status and Alavés being relegated instead. He added another in the final of the Copa del Rey, in a 4–1 defeat of Zaragoza.
Coro finished 2006–07 with four league goals in 30 games, adding five in 11 matches in the team's runner-up run in the UEFA Cup, including one apiece in both legs of the semi-final clash against Werder Bremen. In the following three years he totalled 75 league appearances with six goals, alternating between the substitutes bench and the starting XI.




= Girona and Elche

In mid-January 2011, completely ostracised by manager – and former teammate at Espanyol – Mauricio Pochettino, Coro signed with fellow top-division club Osasuna on loan until the end of the campaign. He spent the following seasons competing in the Segunda División, appearing and scoring regularly for Girona and Elche; he helped the latter return to the top flight in his first year, after an absence of 24 years.




= Goa

On 18 July 2017, 34-year-old Coro signed for Indian Super League franchise Goa after a brief stint in the Cypriot First Division with Doxa Katokopias. He scored his first goal for the club on 19 November, finding the net in the 25th minute of a 3–2 away victory over Chennaiyin. Two hat-tricks followed on 30 November and 9 December, helping the hosts defeat Bengalaru (4–3) and Kerala Blasters (5–2), and he eventually won the Golden Boot with 18 goals.
On 30 April 2018, Coro renewed his contract by one year. He continued his good form the following season by scoring a league-best 16 goals, also being awarded the Golden Ball and helping his team reach the finals.
On 25 May 2019, Coro agreed to another extension at the Fatorda Stadium.

Coro joined Atlético Baleares on 29 September 2020. The following June, he left.
