Miguel Ángel Cordero Sánchez (born 10 September 1987 in Lebrija, Seville, Andalusia) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Xerez CD as a defensive midfielder.

Football career

Cordero arrived at Sevilla FC's youth ranks at the age of 12, from local CA Antoniano. In 2006, he moved to Sevilla Atlético, helping the reserve side achieve second division promotion.

After 45 matches with Sevilla B in the following two seasons combined - suffering relegation in his second - and some call-ups to the first team, although he never appeared officially, Cordero was loaned to another side in level three, Real Madrid Castilla. In August 2010, he was transferred to Andalusian neighbours Xerez CD.

In his first season, Cordero was one of the most used players by manager Javi López (almost 2,900 minutes of action), scoring five goals as Xerez easily retained its division status. He also collected 15 yellow cards.
