Football career

Early years / Las Palmas

Born in Puente Genil, Córdoba, Cejudo played youth football with Real Betis but only appeared officially with the B-side, competing with the side in both Segunda División B and Tercera División. Leaving in the summer of 2007, he joined AD Ceuta in the latter level, where he spent two seasons.[1]

In July 2009, Cejudo signed with UD Las Palmas from Segunda División.[2] He played his first game as a professional on 29 August, and scored in a 1–1 home draw against Real Sociedad,[3] finishing his first year with 34 matches and six goals to help the Canary Islands team narrowly avoid relegation.

Osasuna

Cejudo moved to La Liga with CA Osasuna in the 2011 January transfer window, agreeing to a €320,000 deal in order to replace Atlético Madrid-bound Juanfran.[4] He netted his first goal in the competition on 21 May, the game's only at home against Villarreal CF.[5]

Betis

On 11 August 2014, Cejudo returned to Betis after agreeing to a three-year deal.[6] He contributed with 30 games and one goal[7] in his first season, helping the club return to the top division after a one-year absence.[8]

Cejudo appeared in the same number of matches in the following campaign,[9] scoring in a 1–1 home draw against Real Madrid.[10]

Western Sydney Wanderers

On 24 July 2017, after failing to renew his contract,[11] 33-year-old Cejudo joined A-League team Western Sydney Wanderers FC as a marquee player.[12] At the end of the season, he was released.[13]

Racing Santander

On 28 July 2018, Cejudo returned to Spain and joined Racing de Santander on a two-year contract.[14]
