Aimar Moratalla Botifoll (born 11 January 1987), simply known as Aimar, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for UE Cornellà. Mainly a right back, he can also play as a central defender or defensive midfielder.

Club career

Born in Sant Antoni de Vilamajor, Barcelona, Catalonia, Aimar made his senior debut with EC Granollers in the regional leagues on 29 October 2006, starting in a 1–0 away victory against UE Cornellà.[1] He moved to fellow league team CF Peralada in 2007, and subsequently joined Tercera División side CD Banyoles in July 2008.

In the 2009 summer, Aimar moved to UE Llagostera, freshly promoted to Tercera División.[2] In 2011, after the club's promotion to Segunda División B, he renewed his link,[3] but struggled to appear regularly due to a pubalgia. He appeared sparingly during the 2013–14 campaign, as the Unió were promoted to Segunda División for the first time ever.

On 23 August 2014, Aimar played his first match as a professional, starting in a 0–2 away loss against UD Las Palmas.[4] He scored his first goal in the category on 7 February of the following year, netting the game's only in a home success against Recreativo de Huelva.[5]
