Edu Ramos


Eduardo 'Edu' Ramos Gómez is a Spanish footballer who plays for Cádiz CF as a central midfielder.

Club career

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Ramos was a product of hometown Málaga CF's youth ranks. He made his first-team debut at only 17 on 4 October 2009, playing almost the entire second half of the 1–1 draw away against Xerez CD. He spent his first professional season, however, almost exclusively with the B-side, only appearing two more times in the league.
In December 2010, shortly after the arrival of manager Manuel Pellegrini, Ramos was deemed surplus to requirements alongside five other players. On 5 January 2011, he was sent on loan to CD Leganés in the third division until the end of the campaign.
On 11 July 2011, Ramos signed for Villarreal CF, with Málaga still having a buyback option for the player. After starting with the C-team, he was soon promoted to the reserves in the second level, making his debut – as a starter – on 3 February 2012 in a 0−0 home draw against FC Barcelona B.
Ramos scored his first goal for Villarreal B on 3 March 2012, in a 4−3 home win over CD Alcoyano. He made his official debut for the main squad on 14 December of the following year, starting in a 1−2 loss at FC Barcelona.
On 9 July 2014, Ramos moved to Albacete Balompié, newly promoted to the second tier. On 13 July 2016, after the club's relegation, he signed for Córdoba CF.
On 30 August 2018, Ramos moved to fellow second division side Cádiz CF on a one-year contract, with Córdoba holding a buy-back clause. In May 2019, he agreed to a new two-year deal at the former.

International career

Ramos represented Spain's under-17 team in the 2009 FIFA World Cup played in Nigeria, helping the nation to the third place. On 17 August 2010, he was selected by the under-19s for the SBS International Cup in Japan.
