Carlos García Badías, Carlos García (born 29 April 1984 in Barcelona, Catalonia), is a Spanish footballer, who currently plays for UD Almería of the Spanish first division, as a central defender.

Football career

A product of local RCD Espanyol's youth ranks, García would only appear for the first team on three occasions, during 2003-04 (three defeats), and would serve a loan stint with Polideportivo Ejido the following season.

In 2005, García stayed in Andalusia, being sold by Espanyol to second division side UD Almería. He would become an instant first-choice, being instrumental in the team's first-ever top flight promotion, in 2006-07.
