Liberto Luis Beltrán Martínez (born 26 December 1996), sometimes known as just Liberto, is a Spanish footballer who plays mainly as a left winger for SD Huesca.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Born in Castellón de la Plana, Valencian Community, Liberto started his career at CD Castellón's youth setup. On 9 July 2014, still a youth, he was loaned to Elche CF for one year;[2] initially assigned to the Juvenil squad, he made his senior debuts with the reserves in Segunda División B.

In July 2015 Liberto left Castellón,[3] and subsequently returned to Elche. On 9 September he made his professional debut, starting and scoring his team's third in a 3–3 Copa del Rey away draw against UD Almería (3–4 loss on penalties).[4]

On 14 January 2016, Liberto was loaned to CD Alcoyano in the third tier.[5] Upon returning, he featured more regularly, and was definitely promoted to the main squad on 31 January 2017, being assigned the number 12 jersey.[6]

On 29 August 2017, after Elche's relegation, Liberto moved to another reserve team, Betis Deportivo Balompié in the third division.[7] Roughly one year later, he moved to fellow league team Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa on a one-year loan deal.[8]

On 18 August 2020, after spending the previous campaign on loan at third division side Lleida Esportiu, Liberto moved to Albacete Balompié in the second level on a three-year contract.[9] The following 22 January, after being sparingly used, he was loaned to UCAM Murcia CF for the remainder of the season.[10]

On 7 July 2021, Liberto signed a permanent deal with UCAM, with the side now in Primera División RFEF.[11] He continued to feature in that division in the following years, representing AD Ceuta FC,[12] Alcoyano,[13] SD Tarazona[14] and Mérida AD;[15] with the latter, he scored a career-best 13 goals as they missed out promotion in the play-offs.

On 3 July 2025, Liberto returned to the second division after signing a two-year deal with SD Huesca.[16]
