Football career

Acosta was born in Guadalajara, Castile-La Mancha. In his country, the Real Madrid youth graduate played exclusively in the lower leagues.

Acosta started in 2002 with CD Colonia Moscardó, going on to represent Atlético Madrid C, Real Murcia Imperial, RSD Alcalá – his only Segunda División B experience, suffering team relegation at the end of the 2005–06 season – UD Almería B and Motril CF.^[1]

In January 2010 Acosta moved abroad, signing with FC Universitatea Cluj in what would be his first top flight experience.

In his second year he appeared in 11 games to help his team finish in eighth position in Liga I, two points ahead of neighbouring CFR Cluj.

Again in the January transfer window, free agent Acosta moved to Greece in 2011, starting with Olympiacos Volou 1937 FC.^[2] He still competed in the 2011–12 UEFA Europa League with the side, scoring in a 3–0 away win against FC Differdange 03 for the third qualifying round, but moved in September to fellow Superleague outfit Aris Thessaloniki FC.
