Luis "Luso" Eduardo Delgado Pacheco (born 4 December 1984) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for CD Tudelano mainly as a defensive midfielder.

Club career[]

Born in Zaragoza, Aragon, Luso graduated from Real Zaragoza's youth academy, and made his senior debut with the club's farm team, CD Universidad de Zaragoza. He also appeared with the reserves shortly after.

Luso went on to compete with Segunda División B and Tercera División sides in the following four seasons, representing UE Figueres, UE Rapitenca and UE Sant Andreu. With the latter, he achieved promotion to the third level in 2008.

On 23 July 2010, Luso joined Girona FC in Segunda División.[1] He played his first game as a professional on 28 August, coming on as a late substitute in a 4–2 home win over CD Tenerife.[2]

Luso scored his first professional goal on 11 December, netting his team's only in a 1–1 home draw against RC Celta de Vigo.[3] On 14 July 2013, he signed a three-year deal with Córdoba CF also in the second level,[4] being first-choice in his debut campaign as the club returned to La Liga after a 42-year absence.[5]

Luso's maiden appearance in the Spanish top flight occurred on 28 September 2014, when he started in a 0–0 home draw against RCD Espanyol.[6] His first goal in the competition came the following 17 May in a 1–2 loss to Rayo Vallecano also at the Estadio Nuevo Arcángel, as his team were already relegated.[7]

On 14 July 2017, Luso signed a two-year contract with SD Huesca in the second tier after cutting ties with Córdoba.[8] On 23 July of the following year, after achieving promotion to the top tier, he joined fellow league side CF Rayo Majadahonda.[9]
