Club career edit
Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Spain to an Equatoguinean father and a Spanish mother, Randy made his professional debuts with local UD Las Palmas, playing once for the first team in the 2008–09 season as they competed in the second division.[3] He spent the vast majority of his spell mainly associated to the reserve side.
In the following summer, Randy served a loan at CD Mirandés in the third level.[4] In 2013, after only nine league appearances in two seasons combined and one year with amateurs CA Ceuta, he signed for Moroccan club Moghreb Tétouan;[5] however, shortly after, he asked for the termination of his three-year contract due to personal reasons, and moved to Fokikos A.C. from the Football League (Greece).[6]
On 20 August 2019, Randy joined Olympiacos Volou 1937 FC.[7]
International career edit
In July 2010, Randy received his first call for the Equatoguinean national team, for a friendly match against Morocco on 11 August.[8] However, he rejected the call to concentrate on club duties with Las Palmas.
Randy's debut came on 12 October 2010, in a 0–2 friendly loss with Botswana in Malabo.[9]
