Alberto Aguilar Leiva, simply known as Alberto (born 12 July 1984), is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for SD Ponferradina as a midfielder.
Football career
Alberto was born in Benamejí, Córdoba. A product of Málaga CF's youth system he made his professional debuts for the first team in the last match of the 2002–03 season, a 0–1 La Liga away loss against RCD Mallorca, while also helping the B-side achieve a 2003 promotion to the second division.
For the 2005–06 campaign Alberto moved to Madrid's Getafe CF, amassing 30 top flight appearances in his first two years combined and also playing an important part in the side's runner-up run in the Copa del Rey. However, the arrival of coach Michael Laudrup deemed him surplus to requirements in his third, which prompted a release in January 2008 with a move to second level's Granada 74 CF.
The following season Alberto stayed in the category, moving to Albacete Balompié. In August 2010, as a free agent, he returned to his native Andalusia, signing for Córdoba CF.
