Template:Spanish name Rafael Jiménez Jarque (born 12 August 1993), commonly known as Fali, is a Spanish footballer who plays for FC Barcelona B on loan from Gimnàstic de Tarragona as a defensive midfielder.
Club career
Born in Valencia, Fali joined Levante UD's youth setup in 2010, aged 17, after starting it out at Villarreal CF and Catarroja CF. He made his senior debut for Levante's reserve team, appearing several seasons in both Segunda División B and Tercera División.
On 16 August 2013 Fali rescinded his link with the Valencians,[1] and joined Huracán Valencia CF in the third level just hours later.[2] In the 2014–15 campaign he appeared in 42 matches and scored three goals, as his side missed out promotion in the play-offs.
On 6 July 2015 Fali signed a two-year deal with Gimnàstic de Tarragona, newly promoted to Segunda División.[3] He made his professional debut on 30 August, coming on as a half-time substitute for Sergio Tejera in a 2–1 away win against CD Tenerife.[4]
Fali scored his first goal as a professional on 19 December 2015, netting his team's second in a 3–1 home win against Real Zaragoza.[5] On 7 January of the following year he was loaned to FC Barcelona B, until June.[6]
