José Antonio Vélez Jiménez (born 16 September 1983), known as Ñoño, is a Spanish footballer who plays for UE Cornellà. Mainly a left back, he can also operate as a left winger.[1]

Club career

Born in Tarragona, Catalonia, Ñoño began his career with local Gimnàstic de Tarragona, and made his senior debut on 27 November 2004 against Terrassa FC for the Segunda División championship.[2] He finished the season on loan to CD Alcoyano, in Segunda División B.[3]

Ñoño stayed in the third level for 2005–06, appearing rarely for UE Sant Andreu[4] and moving all the way down to the regional leagues with FC Andorra. In the 2007 summer he returned to the third tier, signing for Marino de Luanco.[3]

Subsequently, Ñoño spent four seasons with CF Pobla de Mafumet, Gimnàstic's farm team. On 10 July 2012, he was promoted to the main squad,[5] making his official debut on 2 September against RCD Espanyol B[6] and scoring his first goal with Nàstic on the 30th, against CE L'Hospitalet.[7]

On 7 June 2013, Ñoño opted to not renew his contract with Gimnàstic, and was released.[8] Late in the month, he signed with neighbouring CF Reus Deportiu also in division three.[9]

Personal life

Ñoño's younger brother, Francisco, is also a footballer. Both played for Gimnàstic and Pobla.[10]
