Roberto Luis Fresnedoso Prieto (born 15 January 1973 in Toledo, Castile-La Mancha), simply Roberto, is a retired Spanish footballer who played as an all-around midfielder.

Football career

After moving to Catalonia in his teens, Roberto started his football career in the area, first with Girona FC, after which he moved to RCD Español, spending his first years with its then feeder club, CE L'Hospitalet; he made his first appearance with the main squad in 1992–93, in an eventual La Liga relegation.

After solid performances in the following seasons - this included 36 matches with five goals in 1994–95, as Espanyol qualified for the UEFA Cup straight out of the second division - Roberto signed with Atlético Madrid. Never an undisputed starter in seven years, he did manage 31 matches with three goals in his first, where the capital team won the double; he was also loaned in early 1998 to former side Espanyol.

Roberto retired in 2005, after successive spells with UD Salamanca, Real Murcia, Rayo Vallecano and Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa (the latter in level three).
