Julián Vara López (born 17 November 1983) is a Spanish retired footballer who played mainly as a right midfielder.
Vara was born in Las Rozas de Madrid, Community of Madrid. A product of Atlético Madrid's youth academy, he spent most of his spell there with their reserves,[1] only appearing twice for the first team: in rounds #37 and #38 of the 2005–06 season, he played ten minutes against Valencia CF and Real Betis, both ending in 1–1 La Liga draws.[2] [3]
In the 2007–08 campaign, Vara served a loan at RC Celta de Vigo in the Segunda División,[4] being rarely used while often deployed as a right-back.[5] After another spell in that league with SD Huesca,[6] he resumed his career in the lower levels of his country, scoring six goals as AD Alcorcón promoted to the second tier for the first time ever in 2010 (play-offs included);[7] on 10 November 2009, he came on as a 73rd-minute substitute in the 1–0 away loss to Real Madrid in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey,[8] but the hosts had already been defeated 4–0 in the first leg in what was dubbed Alcorconazo.[9]
