[edit] Club career

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Guirado was an unsuccessful youth graduate at hometown club Málaga CF. He started his senior career in 2003 with CE Mataró in Segunda División B, returning to his native region after one season and signing for Córdoba CF in Segunda División,[2] appearing in only nine games (out of 42) in a relegation-ending season.

Following a brief loan spell with Atlético Madrid B in the third division,[3] Guirado joined Deportivo de La Coruña for €50.000,[4] but only appeared officially for the reserves, also being loaned twice during the 2006–07 campaign, playing 18 games for UD Vecindario (second level) and CD Lugo (third) combined. He spent the following three seasons in division three with as many teams, being relegated twice.

In early October 2010, Guirado signed for Tercera División club CD Ronda.[5] However, in the summer of 2011, he decided not to renew his contract in order to explore other possibilities, with scouts from China, Indonesia, Japan and the United Arab Emirates following his progress.[6]

On 13 August 2011, Guirado signed a deal with Global F.C. in the Philippines.[7] He was sent off in his first match, against Philippine Army FC, and scored his first goal on 30 January 2012 in a 5–1 win over Nomads Auction Manila.[8]

[edit] International career

On 26 February 2011, it was reported that Guirado would join the Philippines national football team due to his ancestry.[9] He made his debut in the 1–1 draw against Myanmar on 21 March, in the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup qualification tournament.[10]

On his third appearance, for the same competition, Guirado scored two goals in the second half of the 3–0 away win against Bangladesh.[11][12]

[edit] Personal life

Born to a Filipina mother who hails from Ilagan, Isabela, Guirado started playing football when he was six years old.[13] He is a cousin of Carlos García, a Filipino basketball assistant coach (namely with the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters in the Philippine Basketball Association), and is also a distant uncle of ABS-CBN star model and actress Coleen Garcia.

Guirado's older brother, Juan Luis, is also a footballer. A defender, he spent most of his career in amateur football, appearing in 80 games in the third division for four teams,[14] and also represented the Philippines internationally.
