Jonathan Sesma González (born 14 November 1978) is a Spanish footballer who plays for CD El Cotillo as a left winger.

He amassed Segunda División totals of 196 games and 45 goals over the course of six seasons, in representation of Universidad Las Palmas, Córdoba and Cádiz. He added 119/19 in La Liga, with Cádiz and Valladolid.

Football career

Sesma was born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands. He played his early career in the third division – with the exception of the 2000–01 season in the second level, with Universidad de Las Palmas CF, suffering relegation – appearing for CD Corralejo and RCD Mallorca's B-team.

In the 2001 summer Sesma joined Córdoba CF in division two, featuring very rarely over the course of two seasons and also being loaned to two clubs in the third tier, former side Universidad and AD Ceuta. Released in 2003 he moved to Cádiz CF, with which he was an instant hit, scoring 23 goals in his first two years combined and achieving promotion to La Liga in his second.

Still with the Gaditanos, Sesma made his top flight debut on 28 August 2005 in a 1–2 home loss against Real Madrid,[1] and continue to feature prominently, netting seven goals in 36 games but eventually being relegated at the end of the campaign, as second from the bottom.

In 2007 Sesma joined Real Valladolid, freshly returned to the top division. During his early spell, he too was an undisputed starter: on 22 November 2008, in a 3–0 away defeat of Villarreal CF, he scored a brace, with all three goals coming before half-time.[2]

During 2009–10 Sesma suffered from various physical problems, playing 1,700 minutes less than in the previous year and only scoring one goal. Also, the Castile and León team was relegated, and his contract was not renewed.

In early August 2010, at nearly 32, Sesma signed a one-year deal with former club Córdoba.[3] The following season he had his first abroad experience, joining nine compatriots at Asteras Tripoli F.C. in Greece; he was released in the 2012 January transfer window, going on to compete in his country's lower leagues until his retirement.
