David Astals Barrera (born 13 December 2001) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for UD Ibiza. Mainly a right-back, he can also play as a midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Bienvenida, Badajoz, Extremadura, Astals moved to Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia aged only two months due to a family issue, and joined CE Sabadell FC's youth setup after representing CA Polinyà.[2] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 22 December 2019, playing the last 31 minutes in a 0–1 Segona Catalana away loss against CE Sallent.[3] In the youth teams of the club, he played mainly as an attacking midfielder.

Astals made his first team debut on 19 September 2020, coming on as a late substitute for Héber Pena in a 1–2 loss at Rayo Vallecano in the Segunda División championship;[4] by doing so, he became the first player born in the 21st century to appear for the club.[5] Three days later, he renewed his contract with the club for a further two seasons.[6]

On 21 January 2021, Astals was loaned to Segunda División B side AE Prat until June.[7] Upon returning, he was rarely used during the 2021–22 season due to an injury,[8] before subsequently establishing himself a regular starter as a right-back.

On 7 July 2024, after Sabadell's relegation, Astals signed a two-year contract with UD Ibiza in Primera Federación.[9] On 18 July of the following year, he returned to his previous club on a one-year loan deal,[10] and was again a first-choice during the campaign as the Arlequinats returned to the second division after a five-year absence.

International career

[edit]

Astals debuted with the Catalonia team in a friendly 2–1 win over Palestine on 18 November 2025.[11]
