Alejandro 'Álex' Gálvez Jimena (born 6 June 1989 in Granada, Andalusia) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Sporting de Gijón as a central defender or defensive midfielder.

[edit] Football career

Gálvez played youth football for Albacete Balompié and Villarreal CF, being loaned by the latter to farm team CD Onda in Tercera División, in what was his senior debut. In the following two seasons, he played in Segunda División B with CF Villanovense and Sporting de Gijón's reserves,[1] being relegated on both occasions, but reinstated in 2010–11.

On 13 December 2011, Gálvez made his debut with the Asturians' first team, in a Copa del Rey match against RCD Mallorca (1–0 away win, 1–2 aggregate loss).[2] On 15 January of the following year, again as a starter and a stopper, he made his first La Liga appearance, scoring the first goal of the game in an eventual 2–1 home triumph over Málaga CF.[3]
