Jesús Imaz Ballesté (born 26 September 1990) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for UE Llagostera as a forward.

Club career

Born in Lleida, Catalonia, Imaz graduated through local UE Lleida's youth system. He made his senior debut on 30 August 2009, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–1 home draw against UE Sant Andreu for the Segunda División B championship.[1]

In the 2011 summer, after Lleida's dissolution, Imaz joined newly formed Lleida Esportiu also in the third level.[2] He was an undisputed starter in the following seasons, as the club missed out on promotion three times in the play-offs.

On 12 July 2014 Imaz signed a two-year deal with UE Llagostera, freshly promoted to Segunda División.[3] He played his first match as a professional on 23 August, replacing Vallho in the 78th minute of a 0–2 away loss against UD Las Palmas.[4]

Imaz scored his first professional goal on 19 October, but in a 1–4 home loss to RCD Mallorca.[5]
