Mariano González Maroto (born 27 October 1984), commonly known as Nano, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a left back or midfielder for St Joseph's in the Gibraltar National League.

Club career

Spain

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Nano spent the vast majority of his first six years as a senior in the lower leagues and amateur football, representing UD Fuengirola Los Boliches, UD Marbella, FC Barcelona B, Córdoba CF, UE Lleida and FC Cartagena. The exception to this occurred during the 2005–06 season, when he totalled only 198 minutes in the Segunda División for Gimnàstic de Tarragona to help them promote to La Liga.

Nano returned to the second level in the 2009–10 campaign, being relatively played by Cádiz CF[1] but suffering team relegation. He scored his first goal as a professional on 4 October 2009, in a 1–0 away win against Albacete Balompié.[2]

After two years back in division three, with Real Oviedo,[3] Nano returned to the second tier by signing with SD Ponferradina.[4] He only missed one game in 42 in his first and only season, adding two goals[5][6] to help the club avoid relegation one year after promoting.

Panathinaikos

In the summer of 2013, after refusing to show up for training,[7][8] Nano joined Panathinaikos F.C. from Greece. He made his debut in top-flight football on 18 August of that year, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 2–0 home success over Panetolikos F.C. for the Super League and converting a three-minute penalty kick in the process.[9]

Nano extended his contract to Pana on 8 December 2014, until 2017.[10] During his spell in Athens, he was successively reconverted into a left back.[11]

Return to Spain

On 25 August 2016, Nano signed a two-year contract with Spanish second division club UD Almería.[12]
