Template:Spanish name Diego Díaz Garrido (born 30 December 1968 in Madrid), known simply as Diego, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Football career
Mainly a backup throughout his entire professional career, Diego played mainly for Atlético Madrid. During his late years, he managed to maintain an interesting battle for first-choice with veteran Abel Resino but never really broke into the first team, with his main club or any other.
In January 1991 Diego served a six-month loan at Sporting de Gijón, as replacement for legendary Juan Carlos Ablanedo, severely injured. Over the course of seven seasons, he appeared in a total of 61 La Liga games.
