Alejandro 'Álex' Pérez Aracil (born 21 January 1985 in Madrid) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a midfielder.

Football career

After unsuccessfully emerging through Real Madrid's youth academy, Pérez made his professional debuts with Gimnàstic de Tarragona in Catalonia, but played no second division matches in his sole season.

In January 2007, he was released by the merengues, going on to serve an unassuming stint abroad, with Greece's Aris Thessaloniki FC. In that summer, he returned home, signing with Albacete Balompié in level two.

After two second seasons with only relative playing time in his second, Pérez was released.

Personal

Pérez's older brother, Miguel, is also a footballer. Both played in Gimnàstic in 2005–06.

Their father, Miguel Ángel Pérez, was also a footballer. Born in Argentina, he settled in Spain after retiring, having played in the country for Real Madrid and Real Zaragoza.
