Miguel Pallardo

Miguel Gonzales Pallardó is a Spanish midfielder playing for Almeria on loan from Levante UD.

He started to play professionally in 2004 for the Valencia’s reserve team. Then he was promoted to the main squad. On May 15, 2005 he made his debut against Espanyol and in the season 2006/07 became a fully legitimate first team player.

During that campaign he got a chance to reveal his talent due to the injuries of main squad players David Albelda and Rubén Baraja. He used that possibility and became an integral part of Valencia’s main squad. However when those players recovered Miguel lost his place in the starting eleven and had to go on loan seeking playing time.

In 2007 he was picked up by Getafe and took the pitch 14 times during the whole season. Getafe themselves decided to buy out player’s contract by the end of the season but immediately sent him on loan to Levante that had just relegated to the Segunda. During his first season he achieved great results so Levante loaned him again. That season was even more successful as Levante returned to the Primera. As Levante maintained their top flight status in the season 2010/11 he broke up with Getafe and moved to the Valencian side in a €200.000 deal. However the season 2011/12 was rather unfortunate for Pallardó as he made only 8 appearances throughout the whole season. In 2013 he was sent on loan to Almeria.
