Club career edit

Born in Iserlohn, West Germany to a German father and a Spanish mother from Galicia, Maikel spent most of his career in the second (CD Toledo, Getafe CF, SD Compostela, Terrassa FC, CD Tenerife and Lorca Deportiva CF, suffering four relegations) and third divisions of Spanish football, but appeared 17 times for Deportivo de La Coruña in La Liga over three seasons.[1][2][3]

He played his first game in the top flight on 26 May 1996, coming on as a 62nd-minute substitute in a 2–2 home draw against FC Barcelona,[4] and his best input at the professional level consisted of 19 goals in 36 matches for Compostela in the 2002–03 campaign, with his team finishing in ninth position in the second tier but being relegated due to financial irregularities.[5][2]
