Club career

edit

Born in Málaga, Cristóbal finished his graduation in UD Almería's youth setup, and made his senior debuts with the B-team in the 2010–11 campaign, in Segunda División B.

On 6 January 2011 Cristóbal made his debut with the Andalusians' first-team, coming on as a substitute for Pablo Piatti in the 58th minute of a 4–3 win at RCD Mallorca, for the season's Copa del Rey.[1] He then appeared on the bench in a 1–1 home draw against UD Las Palmas on 23 October, but remained unused.

After being named captain in September 2013,[2] Cristóbal played his second match with the main squad on 18 December of the same year, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Las Palmas, again for the national Cup.[3] On 15 July of the following year he was loaned to Gimnàstic de Tarragona, also in the third level.[4]

On 18 August 2015 Cristóbal rescinded his link with the Rojiblancos, and signed for Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa in the same division.[5]
