Club career

Born in A Coruña, Galicia, Espasandín finished his football formation at Real Valladolid, having joined from local SD Compostela. In the 2005–06 season he made his professional debut, playing one second division match; his fate did not improve in the following campaign as he only appeared in seven games (out of 42) for SD Ponferradina, which eventually got relegated.

Espasandín signed for FC Barcelona B in July 2007, helping the Catalans return to the third level in his debut season under young manager Pep Guardiola. In early June 2010, after helping Barça B return to division two after 11 years, he signed a contract with AC Omonia from Cyprus, joining the club alongside former Barcelona teammate José Manuel Rueda.[1]
