Néstor Albiach Roger (born 18 August 1992), simply known as Néstor, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Czech club FK Dukla Prague as a forward.

Club career

Born in Xirivella, Valencian Community, Néstor was a Levante UD youth graduate, but made his debut as a senior with SC Requena in the 2011–12 campaign, in Tercera División.[1]

In August 2012 Néstor moved to Segunda División B side CD Olímpic de Xàtiva.[2] On 25 January of the following year, after being an ever-present figure for the side, he rescinded his contract and signed a two-year deal with Czech First League side FK Dukla Prague.[3][4]

Néstor made his professional debut on 22 February 2013, starting in a 1–1 home draw against FK Teplice.[5] He scored his first league goals on 13 April, netting a brace in a 5–1 home routing of FK Jablonec.[6]

Néstor was shortlisted for the league's Player of the Month award for May 2013, after having scored in wins against FC Zbrojovka Brno (3–2) and FK Mladá Boleslav (2–1) during the month.[7] He was also elected as the best foreigner of the league in June.[8]

Néstor sustained an injury during the winter break of the 2013–14 season, being sidelined until August 2014 when he came on as a substitute in a 1–2 defeat at FC Viktoria Plzeň.[9]
