Cristian Gómez García (born 27 July 1989) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Lleida Esportiu as a central midfielder.
Football career
Born in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona, Catalonia, Gómez began his career with hometown's CE L'Hospitalet and made his senior debuts there, appearing in two Segunda División B games in the 2007–08 season as his team eventually suffered relegation; he was an essential first-team unit in the subsequent promotion, then scored two goals from 25 appearances to help them retain their status.
In late March 2011, Gómez moved to RCD Espanyol, alongside teammate Christian Alfonso – the transfer being effective as of July – initially being assigned to the B-side. On 20 November 2011 he made his main squad – and La Liga – debut, playing 19 minutes in a 0–0 away draw against Real Sociedad; his first top flight goal came on 15 April of the following year, the first of a 4–0 home routing over Valencia CF.
On 23 August 2013, Gómez was loaned to Segunda División side Real Madrid Castilla, with a buyout clause. The following summer, in the same predicament, he joined fellow league team Girona FC.
On 31 August 2015, Gómez terminated his contract with the Pericos after his loan expired.
