Albert Canal Bartrina (born 10 July 1991) is a former Spanish professional footballer who played as a centre back.
Born in Olot, Girona, Catalonia, Canal began his senior career with UE Llagostera in the Tercera División, helping them to promote to Segunda División B for the first time ever in his only season. In December 2010 he signed with neighbours RCD Espanyol, being assigned to the reserves in the third tier. [1]
Canal made his first-team debut on 13 December 2011, coming on as an 82nd-minute substitute for fellow youth graduate Víctor Álvarez in a Copa del Rey match against RC Celta de Vigo (0–0 away draw, 4–2 aggregate). [2] He continued appearing exclusively for the B team until his release in June 2013, also serving a short loan at his first club, now in division three. [3]
Canal continued competing in the lower leagues and amateur football the following years, with UE Olot, AEC Manlleu, UE Figueres and CF Peralada; all the sides hailed from his native region. [4] In October 2020, the 29-year-old moved abroad and joined Resources Capital FC in the Hong Kong Premier League.
In May 2023, Canal announced his retirement from professional football.
