[edit] Football career
[edit] Spain
An unsuccessful FC Barcelona youth graduate, Tonet played professionally for Deportivo Alavés B, CF Gavà, Real Oviedo B, Real Ávila CF, SD Compostela, CF Reus Deportiu, CF Rayo Majadahonda, CF Fuenlabrada, AD Alcorcón and CE L'Hospitalet.
In a full decade, he never appeared in higher than the third division.
[edit] St. Mirren
On 4 August 2008, Tonet moved to the Scottish Premier League, signing a one-year contract with St. Mirren[1] after impressing on trial in pre-season, which included a goal against Football League Championship's Blackpool.
His debut in the SPL came against Celtic in a 1–0 defeat, and he went on to play in the first four games, being sent off against Hearts, in another loss.[2] However, after suffering a foot injury from which he never fully recovered,[3] he was deemed surplus to requirements early in the following year,[4] and released buy manager Gus MacPherson at the season's end.
[edit] Return to Spain
After being released by Saints in the summer of 2009, Tonet returned to his country, joining lowly Villajoyosa CF, in the third category. After the Valencian side's relegation, he stayed in that division, signing a one-year deal with CD La Muela in Zaragoza, Aragon, and meeting the same fate.
[edit] Personal
Tonet's younger brother, Andreu, is also a professional footballer. Groomed also at Barcelona, the midfielder played in La Liga for Sporting de Gijón, albeit with little impact, also having an abroad stint in Poland.
