Cadete was born in Madrid, and made his senior debut with Alcobendas CF in the regional leagues. In 2012 he moved to AD Alcorcón, and spent one full season in the youth setup before featuring regularly for the reserves in Tercera División.

On 29 May 2018, Cadete moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Ascenso MX side Atlético San Luis.[5] He made his professional debut on 21 July, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Mineros de Zacatecas.
