Roberto played his first game in the second division of Spanish football on 31 August 2008, and scored in a 2–2 home draw against CD Castellón.[2] He went on to amass second-tier totals of 141 matches and 32 goals, for Huesca and Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[3]

In 2012, at the age of 32, Roberto moved abroad for the first time, going on to spend several years in the Cypriot First Division.[4]
