Carlos Fernández Luna (born 22 May 1996) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Deportivo de La Coruña on loan from Sevilla FC as a forward.

Club career

Born in Seville, Andalusia, Fernández started playing senior football with Sevilla FC's reserve team at only 17, competing in Segunda División B.[1] On 18 December 2013, he made his official debut with the main squad, coming on as a substitute for Piotr Trochowski in a 0–2 home loss against Racing de Santander for the season's Copa del Rey.[2]

On 2 March 2014, still before his 18th birthday, Fernández first appeared in La Liga, replacing fellow youth graduate José Antonio Reyes midway through the second half of an eventual 1–0 success over Real Sociedad also at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium.[3] He scored a career-best 17 goals for the B-side during the 2015–16 campaign, helping in their promotion to Segunda División.

Fernández scored his first professional goal on 21 August 2016, in the reserves' 3–3 home draw against Girona FC.[4] Three weeks later he netted for the first time in the top flight with the first team, scoring the second of two late goals in a 2–1 win home over UD Las Palmas.[5]

During a training session in early October 2016, Fernández partially ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament to his left knee, going on to miss the rest of the season.[6] He returned to training the following April,[7] and subsequently featured regularly with the B-side.

On 30 August 2018, Fernández was loaned to Deportivo de La Coruña in the second division, for one year.[8]
