About Vicente Guaita
Vicente Guaita Panadero (Spanish pronunciation: [biˈθente ˈɣwajta panaˈðeɾo]; born 10 January 1987) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper. He appeared in 237 La Liga matches over ten seasons with Valencia, Getafe and Celta, as well as a season on loan to Recreativo in the Segunda División. In 2018, he signed with Premier League club Crystal Palace, totalling 154 appearances in five years. == Career == === Valencia === Born in Torrent, Valencian Community, Guaita graduated from the Valencia youth system after arriving there from CD Monte-sión at the age of 13, being promoted to the first team for the 2008–09 season following the retirement of longtime incumbent Santiago Cañizares. Additionally, as German Timo Hildebrand became ostracised by coach Unai Emery, he became the backup. Guaita made his official debut with the main squad on 2 October 2008, in a UEFA Cup tie against Marítimo (2–1 home win). However, after the signing of veteran César Sánchez from Tottenham Hotspur later in the year and the full recovery of Renan, he remained third choice until the end of the campaign. In 2009–10, with Sánchez having renewed his link a further year and the signing of Mallorca's Miguel Ángel Moyá, Guaita was deemed surplus to requirements and joined, on loan, Segunda División's Recreativo de Huelva. As the Andalusians finished comfortably in mid-table he was awarded the competition's Ricardo Zamora Trophy, with just 24 goals conceded in 30 appearances. In November–December 2010, profiting from injuries to both César and Moyà, Guaita had a run of several matches for Valencia, notably a 2–1 home win against Almería in La Liga and a 1–1 draw away to Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League.
