Ángel Pindado

In January 2014, after nearly two years with his hometown side, Pindado signed with KS Kastrioti as a player–goalkeeping coach, becoming the first Spaniard in both capacities to compete in the Albanian Superliga.

Pindado retired in June 2014 at the age of 38, immediately joining compatriot José Murcia's staff at PFC Levski Sofia. He subsequently worked as goalkeeper coach in Thailand (Ubon United FC, under Scott Cooper) and the Indian Super League (FC Pune City, ATK and ATK Mohun Bagan FC, always under his compatriot Antonio López Habas).

After only five competitive matches in the 2010–11 season where he conceded 18 goals, the 35-year-old Pindado was released by Las Palmas. He joined Nea Salamis Famagusta FC of Cyprus in the 2012 winter transfer window.

On 29 May 2005, in the closing round of the top-division campaign, Pindado played his only game in La Liga as Albacete were already relegated, a 1–0 away loss against Racing de Santander. With Las Palmas, he was the undisputed starter as the Canary Islands club was in the Segunda División B, but featured less in Segunda División; he did contribute 22 appearances in 2009–10, as Fabián Assmann dealt with some injury problems.

Pindado was born in Ávila, Castile and León. During his early career he represented Águilas CF, Granada CF, Atlético Madrid B, Getafe CF, Albacete Balompié and UD Las Palmas, also having an unassuming abroad spell with Belgium's Royal Antwerp F.C. in the 2003–04 season (one appearance, relegation from the First Division as last).

Ángel Javier Hernández Pindado (born 24 April 1976) is a Spanish former footballer who played as a goalkeeper, currently a goalkeeping coach.
