Bartolomeu 'Tomeu' Nadal Mesquida (born 8 February 1989) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Albacete Balompié as a goalkeeper.
Club career
Born in Manacor, Balearic Islands, Nadal was a product of RCD Mallorca's youth system. He made his debuts as a senior with the B-team in 2008, spending several seasons with them in Tercera División and Segunda División B. He was also third-choice for the main squad in La Liga, behind Dudu Aouate and Miguel Ángel Moyà.
On 28 June 2011, Nadal signed a two-year deal with Getafe CF, being assigned to the reserves in the third division.[1] On 13 July 2013, he joined fellow league club Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[2]
A backup to Manolo Reina, Nadal appeared sparingly during the 2013–14 season. On 21 February 2014, he was suspended until June after being irregularly lined up in a 2–0 home win against CD Atlético Baleares (which Nàstic subsequently lost 0–3 after a court decision).[3]
Nadal agreed to a new two-year contract with the Catalans on 8 July 2014,[4] but continued to play understudy to Reina during the campaign. On 9 September 2015, he made his professional debut by starting in a 2–2 home draw against Girona FC for the Copa del Rey, also saving one penalty in the 5–4 shootout win.[5]
On 27 January 2016, Nadal cut ties with Gimnàstic.[6] On 19 February, he returned to his previous club Mallorca until 30 June.[7]
On 4 July 2016, Nadal signed for Albacete Balompié, freshly relegated to the third level.[8] He was an undisputed starter during the campaign, contributing with 43 appearances – play-offs included – as his side returned to the second tier at the first attempt.[9]
Nadal made his professional league debut on 20 August 2017 at the age of 28 years and six months, keeping a clean sheet in a 0–0 away draw to Granada CF.[10]
