Club career

Born in Coria del Río, Province of Seville, Lledó began his career at hometown team Coria CF in Segunda División B. After suffering relegation in 2002 he transferred to Atlético Madrid, playing at the same level for their reserves for the next two years.

Lledó joined Real Valladolid in 2004, being initially only used in the Copa del Rey and helping to an away-goals victory over the Galácticos of Real Madrid in the last 16.[1] He finally made his professional debut on 22 May 2005, keeping a clean sheet in a 3–0 Segunda División win against Atlético Malagueño.[2]

On 31 January 2007, Lledó left for second division club Real Murcia for the remainder of the season,[3] playing understudy to Antonio Notario as they won promotion. After two years at AD Ceuta one league below, he signed a two-year contract at CD Castellón on 17 July 2009,[4] featuring regularly in an eventual relegation from division two.[5]

Until his retirement in 2013 at the age of 34, Lledó alternated between the second and third tiers, representing Xerez CD,[6] Real Oviedo[7] and Albacete Balompié.[8]
