Daniel "Dani" Sandoval Fernández (born 16 February 1998) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Primera Federación club Mérida.[2]

Club career

[edit]

Born in Gijón, Asturias, Sandoval joined Real Oviedo's youth setup in 2015, from TSK Roces. He made his senior debut with the reserves on 25 February 2017, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–0 Tercera División home win against Atlético de Lugones SD.

Sandoval contributed with four goals in 26 appearances during the 2017–18 season, helping the B-side in their promotion to Segunda División B. On 13 July 2019, he signed a two-year deal with another reserve team, Atlético Levante UD also in the third division.[3]

On 3 October 2020, Sandoval signed for fellow third division side Real Murcia.[4] The following 29 January, however, he returned to Oviedo and their B-team in the same category.[5]

Sandoval made his professional debut with Oviedo on 29 May 2021, replacing Marco Sangalli late into a 2–2 away draw against CD Tenerife in the Segunda División championship.[6]

After stints with SD Logroñés and Mérida, Sandoval was announced as the new signing of Polish third-tier club Wieczysta Kraków on 3 June 2024. He signed a two-year contract with an extension option, effective from July that year.[7]

On 12 December 2025, Sandoval and Wieczysta agreed to part ways. Three days later, he signed with Polish second division side GKS Tychy on a deal until June 2027.[8]

After GKS Tychy's relegation to the II liga, Sandoval moved back to Spain. On 26 June 2026, he re-joined Mérida.[9]
