Pablo Gozálbez Gilabert (born 30 April 2001) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Valencia CF Mestalla.

Career[edit]

Born in Canet d'en Berenguer, Valencian Community, Gozálbez joined Valencia CF's youth setup in 2007, aged eight. He made his senior debut with the reserves on 5 January 2020, coming on as a second-half substitute for Sergio Moreno in a 1–0 Segunda División B away loss against UE Cornellà.[1]

Definitely promoted to the B's ahead of the 2020–21 season, Gozálbez scored his first senior goal on 8 November 2020, but in a 2–1 loss at Orihuela CF.[2] On 4 March 2021, already established as a starter for the B-team, he renewed his contract.[3]

On 5 July 2023, Gozálbez further extended his link until 2025 and was called up to the pre-season with the main squad.[4] He made his professional – and La Liga – debut on 11 August, replacing fellow youth graduate Diego López in a 2–1 away win over Sevilla FC.[5]
