Jordi Masip

Jordi Masip López (born 3 January 1989) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

He spent the vast majority of his career with Barcelona and Valladolid, being third choice with the first club and starting at the second. He made one appearance in La Liga for the former, and 123 for the latter.

Club career Barcelona Born in Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia, Masip moved to FC Barcelona's La Masia in 2004, at the age of 15. He made his senior debut in the 2008–09 season, playing with UE Vilajuïga – also in his native region – in the Tercera División, on loan.

Subsequently, Masip returned to FC Barcelona Atlètic, serving as backup or third choice during his first years. In the 2014–15 campaign he was promoted to the first team and given the #25 jersey, playing understudy to both Claudio Bravo and Marc-André ter Stegen.

Masip made his competitive debut for the main squad on 16 December 2014, in an 8–1 home win over SD Huesca at the Camp Nou in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey.

Valladolid

On 17 July 2017, free agent Masip signed a three-year contract with Real Valladolid. He played every minute of his debut campaign apart from the final moments of the victorious play-off final against CD Numancia, when manager Sergio awarded back-up Isaac Becerra some game time with promotion from Segunda División all but assured.

Amidst interest from clubs including Sevilla FC and RC Celta de Vigo, Masip extended his contract in July 2019 to keep him at the Estadio José Zorrilla until 2022. In September 2020, he was sidelined with COVID-19, during which Roberto Jiménez played in the Pucela goal. He played roughly two thirds of league matches as the team were relegated, including when his teammate suffered from the same virus in March; in 2021–22 he was second-choice until December.

Masip terminated his contract with Valladolid on 30 June 2024. The following 8 March, the 36-year-old announced his retirement.
