Cristian Ignacio Herrera López (born 13 March 1991) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for CD Lugo as a striker.

Club career

Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Herrera was a product of hometown club UD Las Palmas' youth system. He made senior debut with the reserves in the 2010–11 season, competing several years with the side in the lower leagues.

On 9 July 2013, Herrera rejected a new deal and joined Elche CF Ilicitano in Segunda División B.[1] On 24 November he made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, playing the last 12 minutes and scoring the winner in a 2–1 home win over neighbouring Valencia CF;[2] on 18 June of the following year, after appearing in 21 matches and netting three goals during the campaign, he renewed his link until 2019 and was definitely promoted to the main squad.[3]

On 7 August 2015, Herrera terminated his contract with the Valencians[4] and signed a one-year deal with UD Almería nine days later.[5] On 1 February 2016, however, he severed his ties[6] and moved to Girona FC also from the second level hours later.[7]

On 14 July 2017, Herrera cut ties with the Catalans[8] and agreed to a two-year contract at CD Lugo just hours later.[9]
