Club career

Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Prados joined Athletic Bilbao's youth setup in July 2015, from UDC Txantrea.[1] He made his senior debut with the farm team during the 2018–19 season, in Tercera División.[2]

Prados made his debut with the reserves on 26 October 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Oihan Sancet in a 4–1 Segunda División B home routing of Real Valladolid Promesas.[3] Definitely promoted to the B-side in June 2020, he subsequently became a regular starter for the team, playing in 25 matches (play-offs included) of the 2020–21 campaign, scoring once in a 3–2 away success over SD Amorebieta on 6 February 2021.

On 14 May 2021, Prados renewed his contract until 2025.[4] In June, he was called up by manager Marcelino to make the pre-season with the main squad.[5]

On 14 July 2022, Prados moved on loan to Segunda División side CD Mirandés for the season.[6] He made his professional debut on 13 August, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Sporting de Gijón.[7]

Back to the Lions in July 2023, Prados made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 19 August 2023, replacing Imanol García de Albéniz late into a 2–0 away win over CA Osasuna.
