Template:Spanish name Javier Paredes Arango (born 5 July 1982 in Oviedo, Asturias) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Real Zaragoza in the Spanish first division, as a left defender.

Football career

After starting playing football at hometown club Real Oviedo, and being relegated from the second division in 2002–03, Paredes left for two additional seasons in Real Madrid's B-side, Real Madrid Castilla, with the side by then in the third level.

In 2005–06, Paredes joined another Madrid outfit, Getafe CF, and made his official - and La Liga - debut on 28 August 2005, in a 2–0 away win against Real Sociedad. He would only appear in seven contests that season, barred by first-choice Mariano Pernía, but would be the undisputed starter in the following, as the Argentine left for Atlético de Madrid.

In 2007–08, Paredes joined Aragon's Real Zaragoza, agreeing on a five-year deal.[1] Initially backing up Juanfran, he finished the season as first-choice, as Zaragoza eventually got relegated. He was the undisputed starter in the following season, with the club immediately promoting back.

Pushed by new signing Ivan Obradović, Paredes only appeared in 20 league games in the 2009–10 season, still being the most utilized left-back as Zaragoza retained its top division status. In the summer, he was deemed surplus to requirements by manager José Aurelio Gay, being limited to training. In early September 2010, during a training session, both got involved in a serious argument that nearly evolved to a physical confrontation;[2] subsequently, the player was suspended by the club,[3] being reinstated - and inserted in the starting XI - in November, as Gay was sacked and replaced by Mexican Javier Aguirre.
