Diego Mariño Villar (born 9 May 1990) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Sporting de Gijón as a goalkeeper.

Club career

Villarreal

Born in Vigo, Galicia, Mariño played for Villarreal CF since the age of 14, having already represented four teams as a youth. He made his professional debuts in the 2010–11 season, helping the reserves barely avoid relegation from the second division while appearing in 38 games.[1]

In the following campaign, Mariño was again first-choice, but as the main squad suffered relegation in La Liga, the B's were forced to drop down to the third level even though the team finished in a comfortable 12th position. After the departures of longtime incumbent Diego López and 41-year-old César (the latter retired), he was promoted to the first team by manager Julio Velázquez – also his boss in the second side.

Valladolid / Levante

On 5 July 2013, Mariño signed a five-year contract with Real Valladolid, with Villarreal retaining an option to buy him back for 300,000.[2] He made his debut in the top flight on 17 August, in a 1–2 home loss against Athletic Bilbao.[3]

On 8 August 2014, Mariño moved to fellow league team Levante UD in a season-long loan deal.[4][5] On 31 August of the following year, he signed a permanent three-year deal with the club.[6]

Sporting Gijón

On 1 July 2016, after Levante's relegation, Mariño joined Sporting de Gijón for four years.[7] Second-choice to Iván Cuéllar, he made his debut on 26 November in a 1–2 loss at leaders Real Madrid.[8][9]

International career

Mariño won his first cap for the Spain under-21 team in 2011. Also that year, he was selected by manager Luis Milla for his UEFA European Championship squad.

In the tournament in Denmark, Mariño was a backup to Atlético Madrid's David de Gea as the nation won its third title in the category. The following year, he repeated the role for the under-23 side in a group stage exit at the Summer Olympic Games in Great Britain.
