Natalio Lorenzo Poquet (Spanish pronunciation: [naˈtaljo loˈɾenθo poˈket]; born 18 September 1984), known simply as Natalio, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Real Avilés usually as a forward.
He played 358 games in Segunda División over 11 seasons, scoring a combined 70 goals for eight clubs (mainly Numancia). In La Liga, he represented Almería.
Club career
Born in Canals, Valencia, Valencian Community, Natalio played his first years as a professional with lowly clubs, being bought by Segunda División B's CD Castellón in 2005 and spending his first season on loan to FC Cartagena, also in that level.
Returning for the 2006–07 campaign, with Castellón now in Segunda División, Natalio scored a team-best 15 goals as the team managed to retain their league status.[1] In that summer, he signed with UD Almería as both player and club had their first La Liga experience, and made his competition debut on 15 September 2007, playing 20 minutes in a 1–3 away loss against Real Madrid[2] but ultimately failing to settle at the Andalusians, being consecutively loaned for the duration of his contract; he also did not manage to score in the league during his tenure.
On 21 November 2009, Natalio netted three times for Real Murcia in a 3–0 home win against Real Unión.[3] A starter throughout the division two season,[4] he saw his team get relegated in the last matchday after a 1–1 draw at Girona FC (which in turn retained their status).[5]
On 16 July 2010, Natalio was definitely released by Almería, joining CD Tenerife in the second tier. In the following summer, after the Canary Islands side suffered a second consecutive relegation, he stayed in the division and signed for CD Numancia.[6]
After several seasons of regular playing time, Natalio joined UE Llagostera still in the second level on 27 January 2016.[7] After being relegated, he moved to newly promoted UCAM Murcia CF on 30 June.[8]
On 14 July 2017, aged 32, Natalio moved abroad for the first time in his career and signed with China League One club Yunnan Lijiang FC.[9]
