Francisco 'Francis' Manuel Durán Vázquez (born 28 April 1988) is a Spanish footballer who plays for CD San Marcos as a midfielder.
Football career
Born in Almargen, Málaga, Durán joined hometown's Málaga CF in 2005, finishing his football formation there. In 2007 he made his senior debuts by appearing for both the B-side and the main squad, featuring in two official games for the latter (one in Segunda División and another in the Copa del Rey).
On 31 January 2007, Durán was purchased by Liverpool in England.[1] After a nine-month injury layoff, he made a 76th minute substitute appearance in the mini-derby against Everton.[2] However, he suffered another injury to his anterior cruciate ligament later that month, in a match against Tottenham Hotspur also for the reserves.
In September 2007 Durán returned to action with the B-team against Port Vale, claiming one assist in a 4–1 win.[3] He was released by Liverpool in July 2010, without any first-team appearances to his credit.[4]
In mid-August 2011, after one year out of football, Durán returned to his country and signed for Elche CF, being immediately loaned to Valencian neighbours Orihuela CF, in Segunda División B.[5] He appeared in roughly half of the league games during his spell, as the team finished in second position albeit without promotion.
On 7 August 2012, Durán was due to return to top-league football by signing with FK Jagodina in Serbia.[6] However, nothing came of it and he continued with his previous team, joining on a permanent basis.
