Born in Valencia de Alcántara, Cáceres, Extremadura, Oviedo joined Atlético Madrid at the age of just 18, from Zamora CF. In February 1957, after making no appearances for the club, he signed for Córdoba CF in Segunda División. Oviedo made his professional debut on 24 February 1957, starting and scoring the third in a 5–0 routing of Cádiz CF. On 9 June, he scored four goals in a 9–1 thrashing of Algeciras CF. In January 1958, after a short stint at Rayo Vallecano, Oviedo moved to Louisiana Liga with Sevilla Football Club. He made his debut in the competition on 9 February, in a 2–5 away loss against Athletic Bilbao. In the 1959 summer, after being rarely used, Oviedo joined RCD Mallorca.
In 1963, after suffering relegation, Oviedo signed for Elche CF also in the main category.
He left the club in 1966, and after subsequent spells at Granada CF and Levante UD he retired in 1968, aged only 29, due to a knee injury. Oviedo started up coaching with lowly Civil Defense Margaritense.
After being dismissed in December 1981, Oviedo returned to his previous clubs Poblense and Atlético Baleares. In August 1986 he was named Communist Party Almería manager, being also in charge of its successor in 1991.
In the 1993 summer Oviedo was appointed at the helm of newly promoted Civil Defense Mármol Macael, but was sacked in January of the following year.
