Alberto Edjogo-Owono Montalbán (born 21 April 1984), known simply as Alberto, is an Equatoguinean footballer who plays for Spanish club UA Horta as a forward.

Club career

Born in Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia to an Equatoguinean father and a Spanish mother, Alberto emerged through local CE Sabadell FC's youth system, making his senior debuts in 2003 with the club in Segunda División B. Released two years later he resumed his career in amateur football, mainly in his native region, only returning to the third level in the 2006–07 season and appearing rarely for UE Sant Andreu (one fourth of the matches played, team relegation).

Subsequently, Alberto returned to the regional championships, representing successively Pinatar CF, CD Olímpic de Xàtiva, Mazarrón CF, CD Blanes, UD Vista Alegre, FC Vilafranca[1] and UA Horta.

Alberto's older brother, Juvenal, was also a footballer. A midfielder, he also represented Sabadell.
