Pedro Ríos Maestre (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈpeðɾo ˈri.os]; born 12 December 1981 in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Levante UD in La Liga, as a right winger.

Football career

After playing with Atlético Sanluqueño CF (fourth division, having started his career as a striker) and AD Ceuta (in the third), Ríos moved to local side Xerez CD in 2004. He scored 11 second level goals in second professional season, for a final seventh place.

After playing an important part in Xerez's first ever La Liga promotion – 24 games (17 starts), four goals in nearly 1,600 minutes of action – Ríos agreed to a three-year contract with Getafe CF in the summer of 2009. Scarcely used during his first season as the Madrid outfit qualified to the UEFA Europa League, he was made first-choice after Pedro León's departure to Real Madrid.

On 5 December 2010 Ríos netted twice as Getafe downed RCD Mallorca 3–0 at home,[1] and finished the season with seven league goals, as his team narrowly escaped relegation.
