Rubén Sanz Alonso (born 30 April 1980) is a Spanish former footballer who played as a midfielder.
He spent 13 years of his career with Alcorcón, his professional input with the club consisting of 149 Segunda División matches over six seasons (four goals).
Club career[]
Born in Valladolid, Castile and León, Sanz started playing football with Real Valladolid B. After a brief spell with UP Langreo he signed with AD Alcorcón also from Segunda División B, where he remained until his retirement more than one decade later.[1]
Sanz appeared in only 19 games in his first season in Segunda División, 2010–11 (out of 42), but became an undisputed starter as in his previous years from there onwards.[2][3] He was also in Alcorcón's starting XI in the club's 4–0 home thrashing of Real Madrid in the 2009–10 edition of the Copa del Rey (4–1 aggregate win).[4]
On 24 June 2016, after 432 competitive appearances, Sanz left the Alfareros and joined neighbours CF Fuenlabrada as a free agent.[5][6]
