Alejandro San Cristóbal Sánchez (born 18 January 1997), known as Álex Sancris, is a Spanish footballer who plays mainly as a right winger for Burgos CF.

Club career

Born in Madrid, Sancris represented Getafe CF and CF Trival Valderas as a youth.[1] He made his senior debut with the latter's reserves in the 2015–16 season, in the regional leagues, and started to feature with the main squad in Tercera División in 2016.

On 7 July 2018, after becoming a regular starter for Trival during the campaign, Sancris signed a contract with CD Leganés, being assigned to the reserves also in the fourth division.[2][3] The following 27 June, he renewed his contract with the club,[4] and subsequently became a captain of the B-team as they achieved promotion to Segunda División RFEF in 2021.

On 13 July 2022, Sancris agreed to a deal with Primera Federación side Linares Deportivo.[5] An undisputed starter for the side, he contributed with four goals and 10 assists in 40 matches overall, as the club narrowly missed out a play-off spot.[6]

On 5 June 2023, Sancris was announced at Burgos CF in Segunda División, after signing a two-year contract.[7] He made his professional debut at the age of 26 on 13 August, coming on as a second-half substitute for Miki Muñoz in a 1–1 home draw against SD Huesca.[8]

Sancris scored his first professional goal on 12 November 2023, netting his team's fourth in a 4–2 home win over AD Alcorcón.[9]
