Dionisio Emanuel Villalba Rojano (born 21 December 1989), commonly known as Dioni, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Málaga CF.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Dioni joined Deportivo de La Coruña in 2010 at the age of 20, being assigned to the reserves initially.[1] He only made five competitive appearances with the first team during his tenure,[2][3] his La Liga debut coming on 23 September 2010 when he came on as a second-half substitute for Adrián López in a 1–0 away loss against Villarreal CF.[4]

In summer 2012, Dioni signed with Udinese Calcio, being consecutively loaned to CD Leganés (Segunda División B),[5] Hércules CF (Segunda División, where he scored his only goal as a professional in a 2–2 home draw with RCD Mallorca on 15 September 2013)[6][7] and Cádiz CF (third level)[8] and failing to play any official matches with the Italians. He met the same fate at his next club Granada CF, having temporary spells at Leganés,[9] Real Oviedo[10] and Racing de Santander – all sides competed in division three.[11]

Dioni moved to CF Fuenlabrada on a three-year contract on 6 July 2016, netting 24 times in his first season in an eventual elimination in the third tier promotion play-offs.[12][13] On 10 December 2017, early into the following campaign, he scored five goals in the 7–0 home rout of Coruxo FC.[14]

On 1 August 2018, the 28-year-old Dioni moved abroad for the first time in his career, signing a two-year deal with Polish club Lech Poznań.[15] The following transfer window, however, he returned to his homeland and agreed to a two-and-a-half-year contract at third-division Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.[16]

Dioni continued to compete in the third tier the following years, representing CD Atlético Baleares[17] and Málaga CF.[18]
