Javier 'Javi' Moyano Lujano (born 23 February 1986) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a right wingback for CD Castellón.
Club career[]
Born in Jaén, Andalusia, Moyano finished his youth career with local Real Jaén, making his senior debut in the 2004–05 season in the Segunda División B. He struggled to make the first-team setup in his first years but, after a short loan spell at UD Lanzarote,[1] returned to appear in an average of 32 league matches, always in the third division.
Moyano signed with UD Almería in July 2010, being assigned to the reserves also in division three.[2] In the following two years he also competed in that tier, representing UD Melilla[3] and CD Tenerife[4] and helping the latter club achieve promotion in 2013 by playing 39 games and scoring one goal.[5][6]
On 18 August 2013, Moyano made his first appearance in Segunda División, starting in a 1–0 away loss against AD Alcorcón.[7] Exactly two years later, he signed a two-year deal with fellow league team Real Valladolid,[8] contributing 29 matches and one goal[9]– play-offs included – in his third season as they returned to La Liga after a four-year absence.[10]
Moyano's maiden appearance in the Spanish top flight took place on 17 August 2018 at the age of 32, when he played the entire 0–0 away draw with Girona FC.[11] On 5 October 2020, after 156 competitive appearances, he terminated his contract with the club.[12]
On 22 January 2021, free agent Moyano signed a short-term deal with second division side CD Castellón.[13]
