Francisco José Olivas Alba, aka Kiko (born 21 August 1988 in Antequera, Málaga), is a Spanish footballer who plays for Villarreal CF B as a central defender.

Football career

Kiko finished his football formation at local giants Málaga CF, and appeared five times for the first team in 2006–07, whilst the Andalusians were in the second division.

In the following summer, he signed with Villarreal CF, being one of the B team's most important defensive members as it reached, for the first time, the country's second level. On 30 August 2009, Kiko made his debut for the first team, playing 90 minutes in a 1–1 draw at CA Osasuna; in his second match, already in 2010, we was sent off after a late tackle on Valencia CF's David Villa - a penalty was also awarded - in a 1–4 away defeat.
