Miguel de la Fuente

Miguel de la Fuente Escudero (born 3 September 1999), sometimes known as Miguelin or simply Miguel, is a Spanish footballer who plays as a forward for Deportivo Alaves.

Club Career

Born in Tudela de Duero, Valladolid, Castile and Leon, Miguel joined Real Valladolid's youth setup in 2013, aged 13. On 26 March 2017, aged just 17, he made his senior debut with the reserves by starting in a 0–0 away draw against Burgos CF for the Segunda Division B championship.

On 20 November 2017, Miguel renewed his contract until 2021. Six days later he scored his first senior goal, netting the equalizer for the B-team in a 1–1 draw at Pontevedra CF.

On 21 October 2018, Miguel made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, coming on as a late substitute for Enes Unal in a 1–0 away defeat of Real Betis. On 1 October 2020, he was loaned to Segunda Division side CD Leganes for one year.

Miguel scored his first professional goal on 11 April 2021, netting the equalizer in a 1–2 away loss against RCD Espanyol.
