Club career

Born in Huelva, Andalusia, Zambrano graduated from Recreativo de Huelva's youth setup. He made his senior debut with the reserves in the 2009–10 season, in Tercera División.

Zambrano was promoted to the first team for the 2011–12 campaign, with the Andalusians in Segunda División. He made his league debut on 27 August, starting and being booked in a 0–1 away loss against Deportivo de La Coruña.[1]

On 25 August 2012, Zambrano terminated his contract with Recre and signed for fellow league side Villarreal CF B.[2] On 17 July of the following year he moved to another reserve team, Sporting de Gijón B from Segunda División B.[3]

On 18 August 2014, Zambrano joined CD San Roque de Lepe also in the third level.[4] On 16 July of the following year, he returned to his first club Recreativo after agreeing to a two-year deal.[5]

Zambrano left the Estadio Nuevo Colombino in the summer of 2018, signing with division three team CD Don Benito.[6]

Personal life

Zambrano's father and uncle, respectively Manuel and Antonio, were also footballers. They too represented Recreativo professionally; during his spell there, the former also acted as the club's president.[7][8]
