Daniel 'Dani' Quintana Sosa (born 8 March 1987) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Jagiellonia Białystok in the Ekstraklasa, as a left winger.

Football career

Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Quintana only played lower league football in his country, representing Ontinyent CF, UD Alzira, Racing de Ferrol,[1] CD Olímpic de Xàtiva and Gimnàstic de Tarragona[2][3] in the third division. He appeared for UD Puçol, Valencia CF Mestalla and Huracán Valencia CF in the fourth level.

In the late hours of the January 2013 transfer window, Quintana signed with Poland's Jagiellonia Białystok[4] after a successful trial[5] and after resciding his contract with Catalonia's Gimnàstic,[6] in what was his first professional experience. He made his debut in the Ekstraklasa on 23 February against Podbeskidzie Bielsko-Biała,[7] and scored his first goal on 3 March, in a 2–1 away win over Górnik Zabrze.[8]
