About Diego Capel
Diego Ángel Capel Trinidad (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈdjeɣo kaˈpel]; born 16 February 1988) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a left winger. He made his senior debut with Sevilla at 16, going on to appear in 173 competitive matches for the club over seven La Liga seasons (12 goals) and win four major trophies, including two UEFA Cups. In 2011, he signed for Sporting CP, totalling 142 games and winning the 2014–15 Taça de Portugal; subsequently, he had a nomadic career. Capel earned 60 caps for Spain across all age groups, representing the under-21s in two European Championships. He made his full debut in 2008. Capel became first-choice in the 2007–08 season due to the death of another left-footed winger, Antonio Puerta, in late August. Capel scored his first goal for Sporting on 2 October 2011, in a 1–0 Primeira Liga away win over Vitória de Guimarães. On 19 April 2012, Capel scored his seventh competitive goal of the season, helping the hosts come from behind to win 2–1 against Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League semi-finals first leg.
