Born in Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia, Genís was a product of Barcelona's prolific youth ranks, La Masia. He could only play five matches for the reserves over the course of two Segunda División seasons, due to a severe knee injury. Genís resumed his career in the Segunda División B with neighbouring club Sabadell, being an undisputed starter during most of his stay and eventually being named captain of the side. Due to constant physical ailments, now in the ankle, he was forced to retire in late 2005.
