Football career

Born in Murcia, Gil joined Albacete Balompié at the age of six, going on to represent all of its youth leagues. In 2007, he was promoted to the first team, eventually appearing in three full Segunda División seasons with the club;[1][2] his debut in the competition was on 26 August 2007, playing 28 minutes in a 0–1 home loss against Elche CF.[3]

Even though he initially denied it in March 2010,[4] Gil signed for two years with Real Madrid Castilla and, in the ensuing off-season, played two Segunda División B campaigns with Real Madrid's reserves. He was featured in just 15 games in his second one (14 in the regular season plus one in playoffs, as he returned to the second level after five years.

Gil agreed to a three-year contract with AC Sparta Prague in the summer of 2012,[5] becoming the first Spaniard to ever play for the team.[6] He returned to his country and Albacete in the following transfer window, however, only on loan;[7] in 2017, Czech news site iSport named him as second worst foreign player to appear in the Czech First League.[8]
