Miguel Ángel Sainz-Maza López (born in 6 January 1993), commonly known as Miguel Ángel, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Italian club Foggia Calcio as a midfielder.
Club career
Born in Santoña, Cantabria, Miguel Ángel joined local giants Racing de Santander's youth system in 2003, aged 10. In 2011, after impressing with the Cantabrians Juvenil squad, he moved to FC Barcelona.[1]
On 20 June 2012 Miguel Ángel was promoted to the Catalans' reserve squad,[2] and played his first match as a professional on 13 October, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–0 home success over Sporting de Gijón for the Segunda División championship.[3]
On 10 January of the following year Miguel Ángel joined Real Betis B on loan until the end of the season.[4] After only starting once with the Andalusians (which eventually suffered relegation), he returned to Barça, and eventually rescinded his link, joining Italian Serie B side Reggina Calcio.[5]
After appearing in only ten matches with the Amaranto during the campaign, Miguel Ángel signed a two-year deal with Lega Pro's Foggia Calcio on 6 August 2014.[6]
