Óscar Miñambres Pascual (born 1 January 1981) is a Spanish retired footballer.

He could operate as either a defender or midfielder on the right side, and had his professional career marred by constant injuries.[1] He appeared in 37 competitive games for Real Madrid.[2]

Club career

[edit]

Real Madrid

[edit]

A product of Real Madrid's youth academy, Miñambres was born in Fuenlabrada, Community of Madrid, and first appeared with the first team on 13 December 2000, as a 66th-minute substitute for Albert Celades in a 2–1 away loss to CD Toledo in the round of 64 of the Copa del Rey;[3] his La Liga bow took place on 10 February 2002, when he played 90 minutes in a 7–0 home thrashing of UD Las Palmas for his sole appearance of the season.[4] He would also make his UEFA Champions League debut that year, appearing against FC Porto and setting up a goal for Santiago Solari in the 2–1 second group phase away win.[5]

After years battling injuries and a loan at fellow top-division side RCD Espanyol in the 2004–05 campaign,[6] Miñambres became a free agent after Real Madrid did not offer him a new deal.

Hércules

[edit]

On 8 August 2007, newspaper Marca officially announced that Miñambres would play the next three years with Segunda División club Hércules CF.[7] The following day, however, he terminated his contract because his knee was not fully recovered,[8] and he immediately retired from football.[9]
