Alberto Belsué Arias (born 2 March 1968 in Zaragoza, Aragon) is a retired Spanish footballer who played as a right defender.

[edit] Club career

After beginning with lowly Endesa de Andorra, Belsué joined La Liga side Real Zaragoza, where he would amass over 300 overall appearances, starting in the Aragonese side's two major conquests in the decade: the 1994 Spanish Cup and the following year's UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.

Following stints with Deportivo Alavés and CD Numancia (in both cases barely avoiding top flight relegation), Belsué retired after an abroad spell with Greece's Iraklis Thessaloniki FC.

A Spanish international for two years, Belsué made his debut on 16 November 1994, in an UEFA Euro 1996 qualifier 3–0 win against Denmark in Seville (90 minutes played). In the final stages in England, he played in two of the nation's four contests.
