Club career

edit

Born in Tarragona, Catalonia, Osado played for hometown side Gimnàstic de Tarragona before moving to FC Barcelona in 2007 to finish his development.[1] However, after just one season in La Masia, he returned to his previous club, being assigned to the farm team CF Pobla de Mafumet.

Osado made his Segunda División debut with Nàstic on 14 December 2008, playing one minute in a 3–1 home win against Sevilla Atlético.[2] It would be his only appearance of the campaign.

In August 2009, Osado signed a contract with UD Logroñés in Segunda División B,[3] where he remained for two and a half seasons. On 11 November 2010 he put the visiting team ahead at Valencia CF for the Copa del Rey, but the hosts eventually won 4–1 and 7–1 on aggregate;[4] in late January 2012 he joined another team in that level, CE L'Hospitalet.[5]

In late July 2013, Osado moved to fellow league club Lleida Esportiu.[6]
