† Appearances (Goals).Marcos Yáñez Fernández, aka Changui (born 10 April 1977 in Boiro, A Coruña), is a Spanish footballer who plays for CD Estradense as a striker.
He played most of his career with Galician teams.
Club career
Having first played as a professional with SD Compostela, appearing in La Liga during 1997–98, playing six matches with one goal (against Racing de Santander, in a 1–1 away draw), Changui went on to represent several second division sides, before being snapped by Deportivo de La Coruña in 2002, although he would play almost no part with the side (two matches in 2004–05, 13 minutes played), also serving a loan to UD Las Palmas.
In August 2005 Changui was again loaned, this time to Greek outfit Skoda Xanthi FC. Months later he came back to Spain without his parent club's permission, facing the subsequent and pertinent disciplinary proceedings;[1] the player was summoned by the club on 8 March 2006 but did not appear, sending instead his agent, who stated that he did not know about the player's departure from Xanthi until Depor took action.
Finally, Deportivo cancelled Changui's contract on 9 June 2006.[1] He reacted demanding the club for unpaid wages,[2] having signed for Galician neighbours CF Extremadura in the previous year.
After being released by Extremadura, Changui joined SD Ciudad de Santiago in the fourth division, Group I.[3] He helped it achieve promotion to the third level in 2007–08 and, in 2009, resumed his career in the amateur leagues, in his native region.
