Club career

Starting off his professional career with Servette FC in 2013, Dominguez represented three other clubs in Switzerland - FC Zurich, Lausanne-Sport, and Neuchâtel Xamax.[1]

In June 2021, following the decision to not extend his contract with Neuchâtel Xamax, he left Switzerland to join Polish I liga side Miedź Legnica. On 10 July 2021, he signed a two-year deal with the club.[2]

On 2 June 2023, the defending Ekstraklasa champions Raków Częstochowa announced that Dominguez would join them on 1 July 2023 on a two-year contract.[3]

He only made one appearance for his new club, coming on as a substitute in the 2023 Polish Super Cup loss against Legia Warsaw on 15 July, before being transferred to Portuguese side Gil Vicente on 28 July,[4] for a reported fee of €200.000. He signed a three-year contract.[5]
