Career
[edit]Born in Colindres, Cantabria, Camus joined Racing de Santander's youth sides in 2013, from hometown club CD Colindres.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 10 May 2015, starting in a 2–1 Tercera División away win over AD Siete Villas.
After establishing himself as a regular starter for the B's during the 2015–16 campaign, Camus made his first team debut on 8 November 2015, coming on as a second-half substitute for fellow youth graduate Borja Docal in a 1–1 Segunda División B home draw against Burgos CF.[1] On 19 January 2017, after failing to make a breakthrough in the main squad, he was loaned to fellow third division side Arenas Club de Getxo until June.[2][3][4]
On 31 August 2017, Camus terminated his link with Racing and returned to Arenas on a permanent deal.[5] The following 11 January, he moved to SD Eibar and was assigned to farm team CD Vitoria in the same category.[6]
On 25 August 2020, Camus agreed to a deal with Club Portugalete, after spending the previous season in Tercera División after Vitoria was relegated.[7] The following 27 January, he signed with another reserve team, Atlético Madrid B also in division three.[8]
During his time with Atleti B, Camus captained the side,[9] and trained with the first team during the 2021-22 pre-season, playing five friendly matches and scoring the winning penalty kick in a match against CD Numancia.[10] He was also an unused substitute for the main squad in a UEFA Champions League match against AC Milan.[11]
On 10 August 2022, Camus moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Atlético Madrid's Canadian Premier League affiliate Atlético Ottawa on loan.[12][13] He made his professional debut eleven days later, replacing Macdonald Niba late into a 3–0 away win over Cavalry FC.[14] Camus helped Ottawa win the regular season title in 2022, featuring in 13 matches overall.[15]
On 5 July 2023, free agent Camus signed a one-year deal with Primera Federación side Unionistas de Salamanca CF.[16][17] Roughly one year later, he moved to fellow league team SD Tarazona.[18][19]
On 7 July 2025, Camus agreed to a one-year contract with Gimnàstic de Tarragona also in division three, with an option for a further season.[20]
