On 26 January 2013, as both players who split first-choice status in the first team, Diego Lopez and Andres Palop, were unavailable (the former had been sold to Real Madrid shortly before, the latter was injured), Julian was promoted to the main squad. He made his La Liga debut two days later, keeping a clean sheet in a 3–0 home win against Granada CF.

Almeria

On 21 January 2014, Julian was loaned to fellow league side UD Almeria until the end of the campaign. He signed on a permanent basis on 13 June, after agreeing to a three-year deal.

Julian made his debut for the Rojiblancos on 5 December 2014, starting in a 4–3 away win over Real Betis in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey. After starter Ruben went down with an injury he became the starter, notably saving a penalty kick in a 1–0 victory at RC Celta de Vigo.

Wisla Krakow

On 22 June 2017, Julian signed a one-year contract with Polish club Wisla Krakow. His maiden appearance in the Ekstraklasa occurred on 14 July, in a 2–1 away defeat of Pogon Szczecin.
