Antonio Leal

Antonio Leal Mateos (born 28 January 1999) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a centre-back for Portuguese club CD Feirense.

Career Born in Villamartín, Cádiz, Andalusia, Leal joined Villarreal CF's youth sides in 2017, from Cádiz CF. In the following year, after finishing his formation, he was promoted to the C-team in Tercera División, making his senior debut on 9 September of that year by starting in a 2–0 away loss to CD Eldense.

On 1 October 2020, Leal was loaned to Segunda División B side Recreativo de Huelva, for one year. The following 17 July, after suffering relegation, he left Villarreal and signed for another reserve team, Atlético Levante UD in Segunda División RFEF.

On 25 August 2022, after another relegation, Leal agreed to a contract with Primera Federación side Unionistas de Salamanca CF. On 11 July of the following year, he moved to fellow league team SD Ponferradina on a one-year deal.

On 14 July 2024, Leal signed a two-year contract with Gimnàstic de Tarragona also in division three. Despite being a regular starter during the most of the campaign, he lost his starting spot to youth prospect Enric Pujol during the play-offs, as his side narrowly missed out promotion.

On 9 July 2025, Leal terminated his link with Nàstic. Five days later, he moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Liga Portugal 2 side CD Feirense.
