Edgar Badia Guardiola (born 12 February 1992) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for CD Tenerife.
Club career
[edit]Espanyol
[edit]Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Badia was a youth product of local RCD Espanyol. He spent his first seasons as a senior competing in Segunda División B and Tercera División with the B team.[2]
On 11 January 2012, Badia made his official debut for the main squad, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–2 home win against Córdoba CF in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey (5–4 on aggregate).[3] He continued to be almost exclusively associated with the B's during his spell.[2]
Reus
[edit]Badia signed with Granada CF in July 2013, being assigned to the reserves in the third division.[4] On 20 January of the following year, after acting as a backup to Stole Dimitrievski, he terminated his contract with the Andalusians and moved to CF Reus Deportiu of the same league.[5]
Badia was an undisputed starter for the club in the following campaigns, achieving promotion to Segunda División in 2016.[6][7] On 28 December 2018, he was one of five players to leave due to unpaid wages.[8]
Elche
[edit]On 5 January 2019, Badia signed a six-month deal with Elche CF also of the second tier.[9] He made 42 appearances – playoffs included – in the 2019–20 campaign, in a return to La Liga after a five-year absence.[10]
Badia made his debut in the Spanish top flight on 26 September 2020, in a 0–3 home loss to Real Sociedad.[11][12] He remained first-choice the following years, and in August 2022 renewed his link until 2025.[13]
On 7 January 2024, after losing his status to new signing Miguel San Román,[14] Badia was loaned to fellow second-division side Real Zaragoza for the remainder of the season.[15] On 30 August, he terminated his contract with Elche.[16]
Later career
[edit]On 11 December 2024, Badia joined CD Tenerife on a six-month deal.[17]
