Germán Sáenz de Miera Colmeiro (born 25 July 1990), known simply as Germán, is a Spanish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Pego CF.
Club career
[edit]Born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Germán was a product of CD Tenerife youth system. He made his senior debut with the B team in the Segunda División B, appearing in 17 matches as a substitute in a relegation-ending season.
Germán played his first competitive match with the main squad on 1 May 2011, featuring the last five minutes in the 2–1 away defeat against Granada CF[2] and also being relegated from Segunda División at the end of the campaign.
On 25 January 2012, Germán was loaned to third-tier club CD Dénia – managed by former Tenerife player Nino Lema – for the rest of the season.[3] Roughly one year later, he made a similar move to CD Guijuelo,[4] as the former suffered administrative relegation.
In the 2013 off-season, Germán signed for UD Las Palmas Atlético in his native region.[5] After a career-best 11 goals in a relegation-ending season, he remained in the third division with a one-year deal that he signed at Real Murcia CF on 30 June 2015.[6]
Personal life
[edit]Germán's younger brother, Jorge, was also a footballer. He too was developed at Tenerife.[7]
