Daniel Lucas Segovia (born 23 May 1985) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Racing de Santander as a striker.

Football career

Born in Madrid, Lucas finished his formation with local Rayo Vallecano, first appearing with the main squad during the 2004–05 season, in Segunda División B. Released in June 2006, he went on to resume his career in that level but also in Tercera División, representing CF Fuenlabrada, Algeciras CF, Real Zaragoza B, CA Pinto, UB Conquense and Atlético Baleares.

In the summer of 2010, Lucas moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Austrian Football First League side SKN St. Pölten. On 12 July 2011, he played his first match as a professional, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 0–2 home loss against WAC St. Andrä; he finished his first season abroad with 17 goals, ranking third in the league's scoring charts.[1]

After one and a half years, Lucas changed teams but stayed in Austria, signing for Bundesliga's FC Admira Wacker Mödling. He made his debut in the competition on 16 February 2013, in a 1–2 home defeat to SC Wiener Neustadt where he featured 36 minutes from the bench.[2] On 13 April, now as a starter, he scored his first goals for his new club, netting twice in a 4–3 win against FC Wacker Innsbruck.[3]

On 26 May 2013, Lucas scored the game's only goal at SV Mattersburg in the last matchday, helping Admira leapfrog their opponent to finish in ninth position and thus barely avoid relegation.[4] In the off-season, he transferred to fellow league team Wolfsberger AC.

On 2 February 2017, Lucas left St. Pölten and signed a six-month deal at Neftçi PFK from the Azerbaijan Premier League.[5] His contract was terminated by mutual consent on 29 January 2018.[6]

Lucas joined Indian Super League club Bengaluru FC on 15 February 2018, as a replacement for injured compatriot Braulio Nóbrega.[7] He returned to his homeland on 9 August, agreeing to a one-year contract at Racing de Santander.[8]
