Jesús Galván Carrillo (born 4 October 1974) is a retired Spanish footballer. On the right side of the pitch, he played as a defender or a midfielder.

Football career

Born in Seville, Andalusia, Galván made his professional - and La Liga - debuts for local Sevilla FC on 31 March 1996, in a match against Real Zaragoza. He appeared in 22 first-team matches during 1996–97, but the team was relegated.

After a quick spell with neighbours Córdoba CF, in the third division, Galván moved up to the second level but stayed in his native region, signing with Recreativo de Huelva. He would experience his most steady period, however, at Villarreal CF, which he represented four seasons, scoring a career-best four goals in his first year, as the Valencian Community side returned to the top flight after only one year of absence.

Released by Villarreal in the 2003 summer, Galván returned to division two, with Deportivo Alavés. After a further two seasons in that category with a familiar club, Recreativo, he closed out his career at nearly 34 in the lower leagues, at UE Lleida.
