Miguel Ángel Carrilero González (born 3 August 1977), known as Míchel, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a striker.

Contents

In a 15-year professional career, he appeared in 231 Segunda División games over the course of ten seasons (58 goals) in representation of six teams, adding 62/8 in La Liga.

Club career

Born in Madrid, Míchel first appeared professionally for UB Conquense (third division). In late 1997, after a very brief spell in Portugal with F.C. Penafiel, he moved to Rayo Vallecano, where he made his La Liga debuts in the 1999–2000 season.

Míchel returned to Rayo three years later, after two loans in the second level: with Sevilla FC, he was a very important offensive unit in a 2001 return to the top flight after a one-year absence. The following campaign, he represented Sporting de Gijón.

After leaving the capital outskirts side in December 2002, scoring only once in two top division campaigns combined, Míchel finished club top scorer in the following two seasons in level two, with Getafe CF (15 goals) and UD Almería (12), as both achieved first-ever promotions to the top level. In 2004–05's first division he played mainly as a substitute for the former – also from Madrid – netting twice in a rare start, a 2–0 home win against Real Sociedad on 8 May 2005.

For 2007–08, Míchel stayed in the second tier, joining Xerez CD. He played mostly as backup to veteran Yordi, who won the Pichichi for the season. The following campaign, another club of his reached the top division for the first time, but he only contributed with three games in less than 100 minutes of play.

In July 2010, after having contributed with 14 matches in Xerez's top level season, which ended in immediate relegation, scoring in home wins against Real Valladolid (3–0) and Real Zaragoza (3–2), the 33-year-old returned to division three, signing for CD Guadalajara.
