Pedro Ríos Maestre (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈpeðɾo ˈri.os]; born 12 December 1981) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a right winger.

He appeared in 109 La Liga matches over five seasons, scoring a total of 13 goals for Getafe and Levante. He added 248 games and 38 goals in the Segunda División, in a 20-year senior career.

Club career

[edit]

Ríos was born in Jerez de la Frontera, Province of Cádiz. After playing with Atlético Sanluqueño CF (Tercera División, having started his career as a striker) and AD Ceuta (Segunda División B), he signed with local club Xerez CD in 2004. He scored 11 Segunda División goals in his second professional season, for a final seventh place.[1]

After playing an important part in Xerez's first-ever promotion to La Liga – 24 games and 17 starts, four goals[2][3][4][5] in nearly 1,600 minutes of action – Ríos agreed to a three-year contract with Getafe CF in the summer of 2009.[6] Scarcely used in his debut campaign as the Madrid side qualified for the UEFA Europa League, he was made first choice after Pedro León's departure to Real Madrid.[7]

On 5 December 2010, Ríos scored twice as Getafe downed RCD Mallorca 3–0 at home.[8] He finished the season with seven league goals, as they narrowly escaped relegation.

Ríos moved to fellow top-tier team Levante UD on 6 July 2012.[9] He made 37 competitive appearances in his first year with five goals,[10] including three in the Europa League.[11][12]

Ríos alternated between the second and third divisions until his retirement at the age of 38, representing Recreativo de Huelva,[13] Córdoba CF[14] and San Fernando CD.[15] Immediately afterwards, he joined his last club's coaching staff.[16]
