On 18 July 2016 Sánchez joined another reserve team, Sporting de Gijón B in Tercera División. After scoring ten goals in only 18 matches, he made his first team debut on 21 December, replacing Burgui and scoring his team's only in a 1–3 loss at SD Eibar for the season's Copa del Rey.
Sánchez made his La Liga debut on 7 January 2017, again from the bench in a 0–1 away loss against UD Las Palmas. On 7 July he moved to another reserve team, Granada CF B in the third division.
