Daniel Rodríguez Pérez (born 27 March 1977), known as Txiki, is a Spanish retired professional footballer who played as a left midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Txiki was born in San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa. He spent his first years as a senior in the lower leagues, with Utebo FC, Andorra CF, SD Beasain and Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.[1] On 10 October 2001, his 47th-minute free kick was the only goal of the Copa del Rey fixture against Racing de Santander, as Cultural went through to the round of 32;[2] two months later, he signed for that adversary.[3]

On 5 January 2002, Txiki made his debut in the Segunda División, coming on as a 60th-minute substitute for Sietes in a 2–1 home win over Polideportivo Ejido.[4] The following month, he scored in consecutive matches as his team defeated Real Jaén (2–0)[5] then drew 2–2 at SD Eibar,[6] being an important member of the Quique Setién-led squad as they promoted to La Liga as runners-up.[7]

Txiki made the first of his 26 top-flight appearances (for Racing and overall)[8][9] on 31 August 2002, starting the 0–1 home loss to Real Valladolid.[10] He returned to division two in the next transfer window, joining Córdoba CF initially on loan.[11][12]

After two further second-tier seasons with CD Castellón,[13][14] Txiki retired aged 33 following one-year spells in the third with AD Ceuta[8] and Zamora CF.[15]
