Álvaro Zazo Feito (born 18 August 1982) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Real Avilés as a midfielder.

Club career

Born in Madrid, Zazo finished his formation with local Las Rozas CF, making his senior debuts in the 2002–03 season with CD Toledo, in the third division. A year later he joined RCD Mallorca, being exclusively associated to the reserves during his two-year spell and being relegated from the third level in his final one.

In the 2005 summer, Zazo signed with CF Fuenlabrada also in the Community of Madrid, scoring twelve goals in his first and only season. He then moved to neighbouring Rayo Vallecano also in division three,[1] where he began suffering heavily from injury problems, which caused him to miss the entirety of the 2007–08[2] and 2009–10 campaigns; during his spell with the club, he also played with Lorca Deportiva CF on loan.

In July 2010, Zazo signed with CD Leganés.[3] He left after one sole season, and joined CD Tenerife also in the third tier.[4]

On 9 July 2012, Zazo signed with second division side CD Guadalajara.[5] He made his debut as a professional on 19 August, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 away draw against AD Alcorcón.[6] However, in September, he suffered another knee injury which kept him out of action for six months.[7]

Zazo appeared in only six matches as the Castile-La Mancha team was relegated, and renewed his link on 15 August 2013.[8] On 15 March 2015, after nearly eight months without a club, he signed for Real Avilés.[9]
