Marc Vales
Marc Vales González (born 4 April 1990) is an Andorran professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Europa. Mainly a central defender, he can also play as a defensive midfielder. Club career
Born in Les Escaldes, Escaldes-Engordany, Vales never competed in higher than Segunda División B during his lengthy spell in Spain, having started playing football with local Sant Julià. Subsequently, he represented FC Andorra (two spells), Sabadell B, Eivissa-Ibiza B, Binéfar and Atlético Monzón. In the summer of 2011, Vales signed for Atlético Baleares. His first match in the third tier took place on 30 October, and he scored the game's only goal at home against Olímpic de Xàtiva. Vales spent the vast majority of the following years in the same league – with the exception of a few months in the Tercera División with FC Andorra – with Real Madrid C (who acquired him on a free transfer), Zaragoza B and Hospitalet. On 5 August 2016 he signed with Finnish side SJK until the end of the season, with the option of an additional campaign. On 9 November 2016, SJK announced that they had agreed a new two-year contract with Vales. On 25 July 2018, he moved to the Norwegian Eliteserien with Sandefjord on a two-and-a-half-year deal. In January 2022, Vales signed for Malaysian club Kedah Darul Aman. He returned to Spain on 13 February 2023, with the 32-year-old joining Real Unión in the Primera Federación; he changed teams again in the summer, on a contract at Segunda Federación's Europa. International career
After representing Andorra at youth level, Vales won his first cap with the full side on 26 March 2008 (one month shy of his 18th birthday), playing one minute in a 0–3 friendly home loss to Latvia. He went on to appear in more than 80 internationals. Vales scored his first goal on 11 October 2019, as the hosts defeated ten-man Moldova 1–0 in the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers. Career statistics
