Miguel Flaño Bezunartea (born 19 August 1984 in Pamplona, Navarre) is a Spanish footballer who currently plays for CA Osasuna, mainly as a central defender.

A Spain under-23 international, his twin brother Javier is also a professional footballer, and both were brought up at local Osasuna.

[edit] Football career

A product of hometown CA Osasuna's youth ranks, Flaño made his first team debut on September 18, 2004, during a first division match against Real Betis, a 3–2 home win, finishing his debut season with eight appearances.

On June 9, 2007, he scored his first goal for Osasuna, in a 5–0 success at Betis, adding three appearances in the club's UEFA Cup semifinal run.

From then on, Flaño became an essential defensive fixture with the side, as twin brother Javier, whom had been a starter from 2005–07, gradually lost his importance, leaving the side after 2008–09, where Miguel netted four times in 33 matches, in a narrow escape from relegation.
