Braulio Nóbrega Rodríguez, Braulio (born September 18, 1985 in Puerto del Rosario, Canary Islands), is a Spanish football player, currently playing as striker for Segunda División's Real Zaragoza.

Having grown through the youth system of Atlético Madrid, Braulio played 11 league games for the "colchoneros" between 2004-06, before being loaned to Real Mallorca (January-June 2006) and second division's UD Salamanca in 2006-07 (39 matches, 14 goals).

Braulio was loaned again in 2007-08, this time to Madrid side Getafe CF, where he teamed up again with Manu del Moral, who had played with him in Atlético's youth squads.

In October 2007, he scored a marvellous backheel goal in the UEFA Cup, in a 2-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane. He also scored the third and final goal for Getafe in the competition's semifinal second-leg match against Bayern Munich, capitalizing on a defensive mistake by Lúcio in the box and proceeding to blast the ball past goalkeeper Oliver Kahn.

On June 28, 2008, Braulio signed a four-year contract with Real Zaragoza, just relegated to the Spanish second division.
