Playing career
editNegredo was born in Madrid as the first of three sons of a taxi driver. His brothers Álvaro and Rubén also became footballers, with the former becoming a Spain international whose clubs included Sevilla and Manchester City. While his father was not interested in football, Negredo took up the sport and joined the academy of Real Madrid, setting the example for his younger brothers.[1]
Negredo spent his senior career in Segunda División B. In August 2003, he and teammate José Antonio Navarro transferred from Real Jaén to Badajoz.[2] Two years later, after the relegation of fellow Extremaduran club Don Benito, he spent a year at Huesca.[3]
Following a year at Villajoyosa, Negredo joined Logroñés in 2007.[4] The club from La Rioja went through financial problems that would lead to their dissolution, owing him €21,500.[1] In 2008, he signed for Alcoyano, scoring a career-best 6 goals, including the last-minute winner in a 2–1 victory at local rivals Orihuela on 21 December.[5] His team won the group and qualified for the play-offs, where he scored in a 2–2 draw in the second leg, losing 4–3 on aggregate to Cartagena.[6]
In July 2009, Negredo transferred to Alicante,[7] moving halfway across the season to Sangonera Atlético.[8] The move was brought about by a lack of payment from Alicante, with the club's manager Vicente Borge recommending him for his next transfer, to Borge's former club as a player Real Oviedo in July 2010.[9] He renewed his contract for one more year in July 2011.[10]
Remaining in the city of Oviedo, Negredo signed for Covadonga in the Tercera División in September 2012.[11] In June 2017, as captain, the 36-year-old signed for another season.[12]
Coaching career
editIn July 2017, Negredo joined the coaching staff at Recreativo de Huelva.[13] After the dismissal of Javier Casquero, he was assistant manager to Ángel López from November, and replaced him as interim manager in February 2018.[14] On his debut on 18 February, the team came from behind to win 3–1 at home to Écija.[15] He remained in charge until the end of the season, having saved the club from relegation.[16]
In June 2018, Negredo joined Racing de Santander as assistant to his former Oviedo teammate Iván Ania.[17] Ania and his entire coaching staff were dismissed in November 2019.[18] The pair resumed their roles at Algeciras and Córdoba.[19][20]
