Club career
Born in Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia to an Equatoguinean father and a Spanish mother, Alberto emerged through local CE Sabadell FC's youth system, making his senior debut in 2003 with the club in Segunda División B. Released two years later, he resumed his career in amateur football mainly in his native region, only returning to the third level in the 2006–07 season and appearing rarely for UE Sant Andreu (one fourth of the matches played, team relegation).
Subsequently, Alberto returned to the regional championships, representing successively Pinatar CF, CD Olímpic de Xàtiva, Mazarrón CF, CD Blanes, UD Vista Alegre, FC Vilafranca[1] and UA Horta.
International career
Alberto made his Equatorial Guinea national team debut on 6 July 2003, in an 2004 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against Morocco in Bata, a 0–1 home loss.[2]
Personal life
Alberto's older brother, Juvenal, was also a footballer. A midfielder, he also represented Sabadell.[3]
