Alberto Moleiro González (born 30 September 2003) is a Spanish footballer who plays for UD Las Palmas as an attacking midfielder.
Club career[]
Born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Moleiro joined UD Las Palmas' youth setup in 2018, from CD Sobradillo.[1][2] Initially assigned to the Juvenil C squad, he subsequently represented the Juvenil B and the Juvenil A squads[3] before making his senior debut with the reserves on 15 December 2019, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–4 Segunda División B away loss against Coruxo FC.[4]
Moleiro made his first team debut at the age of just 17 on 15 August 2021, replacing Maikel Mesa in a 1–1 home draw against Real Valladolid in the Segunda División championship.[5] He scored his first professional goal on 11 September, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against UD Ibiza.[6]
International career[]
Moleiro first appeared with the Spanish under-19 team in September 2021, in two against Mexico.[7] He scored his first goal for the side on 16 November, in a 6–0 rout of Azerbaijan.[8]
Style of play[]
Despite being often compared to fellow Las Palmas youth graduate Pedri,[9][10] Moleiro often plays in a more advanced role, as an attacking midfielder. Despite having a small height, he is praised for his verticality, capacity of associating with teammates and capacity of shooting.[2][11]
