Football career

edit

Born in Lada (Langreo), Sánchez emerged through local giants Sporting de Gijón's youth system, but could only amass ten appearances for its first team, in four separate second division seasons.

Finally released in 2002, he resumed his career in the third level, representing in quick succession in Orihuela CF, Burgos CF, Real Oviedo, SD Huesca and UE Lleida. In 2008, already in his 30s, Sánchez dropped down to division four – he had already played one season in the category with Oviedo, winning the championship – and returned to his native Asturias, also appearing for several clubs.
