Borja Gómez Pérez is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a central defender.Gómez was born in Madrid. An unsuccessful graduate from Real Madrid's youth system, he made his professional debuts with another team in the community, AD Alcorcón, going on to play three full seasons in Segunda División B.
In the 2010–11 campaign, Gómez had his first Segunda División experience, with another club from the Spanish capital, Rayo Vallecano. On 2 March 2011, after having played all the minutes in his 11 league appearances – mainly due to Iván Amaya's injury, however, as he was never part of manager José Ramón Sandoval's plans – he signed a three-year contract with Ukrainian Premier League side FC Karpaty Lviv.

In the following years, Gómez alternated between the second and third levels of Spanish football, representing Hércules CF, CD Lugo, Real Oviedo, Real Murcia and UD Logroñés. While at the service of the third club, he suffered a right knee injury in January 2016 that sidelined him for seven months.
On 23 August 2018, Gómez signed with East Bengal F.C. of the Indian I-League. In January 2020, after spending several months on the sidelines due to injury, he returned back home due to personal reasons, and at the end of the home asked to be released.Club statistics
