Jon Bakero Escudero (born 16 July 1971) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a forward.

He appeared in 153 Segunda División matches over six seasons, scoring a total of 35 goals for Barcelona B, Almería and Universidad de Las Palmas.[2]

Club career

[edit]

Bakero was born in Goizueta, Navarre. He was a product of Real Sociedad's youth system, spending his first three seasons as a senior with their reserves in the Segunda División B.

In 1992, Bakero signed with FC Barcelona, being assigned to the B team in the Segunda División.[3][4] He played his first match at the professional level on 20 September, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–1 away loss against Real Madrid Castilla.[5]

Bakero scored his first goal in the second tier on 16 January 1993, the only in the home win over CD Lugo.[6] He managed a squad and career-best 13 in the 1994–95 campaign, for the sixth-placed side.[7] During his spell at the Mini Estadi, he also served a loan at UD Almería of the same league.[8]

From 1997 to 1999, Bakero competed in division three. He achieved promotion with Málaga CF,[9][10] being relegated with CF Gavà.[11]

Bakero helped Universidad de Las Palmas CF reach the second division in 1999–2000, the first time in the club's history.[12][13] With 19 games and two goals from the player,[14][15] they were immediately relegated the following season as third from the bottom.[16]

Bakero retired in 2002 at the age of 31, after a stint with amateurs UD Gáldar in the Canary Islands.[17] In January 2010, he joined the coaching staff of his older brother José Mari at Ekstraklasa's Polonia Warsaw.[18]

Personal life

[edit]

Bakero's brothers Santiago and José Mari were also footballers and forwards. His nephew, named Jon as him, is also a professional player.[19][20]
