Roger Martí Salvador (born 3 January 1991), known simply as Roger, is a Spanish footballer who plays for Levante UD as a forward.
Club career
Born in Torrent, Valencian Community, Roger graduated from local Valencia CF's youth system. In January 2011, after a handful of games with the reserves, he was loaned to neighbouring amateurs Burjassot CF.
In July 2011, Roger signed with another team in the community, Levante UD, being assigned to the B-team in Tercera División.[1] On 21 December he made his debut with the main squad, replacing injured Juanlu in a 4–1 home win against Deportivo de La Coruña for the season's Copa del Rey (5–4 aggregate win).[2]
Roger made his La Liga debut on 15 January 2012, taking the place of Xavi Torres for the last ten minutes of a 0–3 away defeat to Athletic Bilbao.[3] Four days earlier he scored his first goal with Levante's first team, netting the second in a 4–0 home win against AD Alcorcón for the domestic cup (5–2 on aggregate).[4]
Roger netted his first top flight goal on 2 December 2012, helping to a 1–1 draw at Celta de Vigo.[5] On 6 August 2013, he was loaned to Real Zaragoza in Segunda División for one year.[6]
On 8 July 2014, Roger joined Real Valladolid also in the second level, in a season-long loan deal.[7] He appeared sparingly for the club mainly due to a knee injury suffered in September,[8] only returning to the fields in April.
Roger returned to Valladolid on loan, on 28 January 2016.[9] He scored a brace in a 2–2 home draw against CD Numancia on 21 February, and finished the campaign with eight goals.
Roger returned to Levante for 2016–17, with the club now in the second division. He netted twice against AD Alcorcón (2–0 home win) and former sides Zaragoza and Valladolid (respectively 4–2 and 3–2 home triumphs), as well as once in a 2–2 away draw to UD Almería, taking his tally up to seven in only ten matches.[10]
