Rafael Carlos Santacruz Aragonés (born 27 January 1983 in Córdoba, Andalusia) is a Spanish footballer who plays mainly as a central defender for Atlético Porcuna CF.

Football career

After playing for Real Valladolid B, Santacruz joined Valencia CF's reserves. On 10 April 2005, he made his first and only La Liga appearance with the latter's first team, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–2 home draw against Málaga CF.[1]

Subsequently, Santacruz appeared one season apiece for Real Madrid's C and B-sides, suffering relegation from the second division with the latter in 2007. After that, he returned to the third level and competed there for AD Ceuta, CD Linares and UB Conquense (one season each).

In the summer of 2010, 27-year-old Santacruz returned to division two, joining Albacete Balompié.[2] In the following transfer window, however, he left without one single official appearance and resumed his career in the third tier; he retired well into his 30's, having competed in Tercera División[3] and the Andalusian regional leagues.[4]
