Roberto Luis Fresnedoso Prieto (born 15 January 1973), known simply as Roberto, is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Toledo, Castilla–La Mancha, Roberto moved to Catalonia in his teens. He started his football career in the area, first with Girona FC then moving to RCD Español, spending his first years with its farm team CE L'Hospitalet. He made his first appearance with the main squad in the 1992–93 season, in an eventual La Liga relegation.

After solid performances in the following years – this included 36 games with five goals in the 1994–95 campaign, as Espanyol qualified for the UEFA Cup straight out of Segunda División – Roberto signed with Atlético Madrid. Never an undisputed starter in seven years, he did manage 31 matches with three goals scored in his first, where the capital side won the double.[1] He was also loaned in January 1998 to his former club Espanyol.[2]

An all-around midfielder, Roberto retired in 2005 after successive spells with UD Salamanca, Real Murcia,[3] Rayo Vallecano and Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa (the latter in the Segunda División B). In 2010 he returned to Atlético as a manager, being appointed at its youth sides.[4][5][6]
