Guzmán Casaseca Lozano (born 26 December 1984), sometimes known simply as Guzmán, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for CD Badajoz as an attacking midfielder.

Club career

Born in Badajoz, Extremadura, Casaseca graduated from CD Badajoz's youth setup, and made his debut as a senior with the B team in 2002. He first appeared with the main squad on 15 December of that year, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–1 home draw against SD Eibar in the Segunda División.[1]

In January 2005, Casaseca moved to RCD Mallorca B of Segunda División B. After one season at Xerez CD in the second level, he was loaned to Córdoba CF on 7 July 2006,[2] contributing seven goals to the latter's promotion from division three and signing a permanent contract shortly after.

Casaseca scored his first professional goal on 13 June 2009, his team's only in a 1–3 away loss to Real Zaragoza.[3] On 1 July, he joined CD Castellón also in the second tier on a two-year deal.[4]

Casaseca signed with third-division AD Ceuta in 2010. After scoring 15 goals in 2011–12, he transferred to fellow league club Deportivo Alavés.[5] He appeared regularly for the latter side, and on 5 July 2014 agreed to a two-year deal at UD Las Palmas.[6]

On 16 July 2015, after achieving promotion to La Liga, Casaseca terminated his contract with the Canarians[7] and joined Real Valladolid a day later.[8]
