Raúl Rodríguez Navas (born 11 May 1988) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Recreativo de Huelva.
Club career
Born in Seville, Andalusia, Navas played youth football with local Sevilla FC, making his senior debut in 2007–08 season with the C team in the Tercera División. On 30 May 2009 he played his first professional match, appearing with the reserves in a 0–4 Segunda División home loss against CD Tenerife and also being sent off.[1]
Navas signed with Real Valladolid in July 2009, initially being assigned to the B side.[2] On 16 May 2010, the day the Castile and León club certified its relegation, he made his La Liga debut, starting the 4–0 away defeat to champions FC Barcelona.[3] In his second year, he appeared in a further five official games with the first team, being released in August 2011.[4]
In the following years, Navas competed in the Segunda División B, with Celta de Vigo B and SD Eibar.[5] He achieved two consecutive promotions with the latter, in 2013 and in 2014.[6]
On 12 July 2014, Navas signed a one-year deal with Real Sociedad, being immediately loaned back to Eibar.[7] He was also utilised in the latter's top-flight debut on 24 August, starting in a 1–0 home victory over his parent club.[8]
Navas scored his first goal in the Spanish top tier on 8 December, the third in a 5–2 home rout of UD Almería.[9] On 3 June 2015, the Txuri-urdin activated a clause in his contract and extended his link until 2018.[10] He missed the entire season, due to a pubalgia ailment.[11] [12]
On 14 August 2019, Navas joined CA Osasuna on a season-long move, with an obligatory buyout clause at the end of the loan.[13] He terminated his contract with the club on 26 January 2021,[14] and immediately moved to second division side FC Cartagena on a 18-month deal just hours later.[15]
On 19 July 2021, Navas signed a 1+1 deal with UD Las Palmas also in the second tier, after exercising the rescision clause on his previous contract.[16] He terminated his link on 1 September 2022,[17] and agreed to a one-year contract at CD Mirandés just hours later.[18]
