Football career

Born in Valencia, Rangel graduated from local Valencia CF's youth system, going on to spend several years with the B-team and also being loaned to neighbouring club Burjassot CF. In the 2003–04 season he backed up Santiago Cañizares and Andrés Palop in the main squad, making his first and only La Liga appearance on 14 May 2004 – as the Che were already champions – in a 1–2 away loss against Villarreal CF.[1]

In 2004, Rangel signed with UE Lleida in the second division,[2] with the Catalonia side being relegated in his second season,[3] where he played in 27 of the 42 league matches. Subsequently, he resumed his career in the third level, playing mainly in his native region.[4][5][6]
