Rubén Pérez Chueca (born 7 August 1980 in Zaragoza, Aragon) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Gimnàstic de Tarragona as a goalkeeper.

Club career

Pérez began his career with CF Figueruelas in the third division, moving to the fourth level with neighbouring SD Huesca in the 2000 summer and achieving promotion to the former in his first season. He continued competing in the category in the following years, with Deportivo Alavés B and CD Badajoz.

In January 2006 Pérez signed with Gimnàstic de Tarragona in division two, playing his first game with the Catalans on 26 February against Lorca Deportiva CF. He appeared in a further 16 matches as the campaign ended in promotion.

In 2006–07 Pérez battled with Albano Bizarri for first-choice status, making his La Liga debut on 28 October 2006 in a 1–3 home loss against Real Madrid.[1] Both players ended the season with roughly the same number of appearances, and Nàstic returned to where it had come from in June.

Pérez played second-fiddle to loanee Roberto in the 2007–08 season, but regained his starting position in the following years, with relegation to the third division befalling in 2012. In July of that year he renewed his contract for two more seasons, with the option to a third.
