Jairo Morillas Rivero (born 2 July 1993) is a Spanish footballer who plays for CD Numancia on loan from RCD Espanyol as a striker.
Club career
Born in Gilena, Seville, Andalusia, Morillas graduated from Sevilla FC's youth setup, and made his debuts as a senior with the C-team in the 2009–10 campaign in Tercera División, aged only 16. He was promoted to the reserves in 2010, spending several seasons in Segunda División B.
On 3 July 2013 Morillas signed a two-year deal with RCD Espanyol, being assigned to the B-side also in the third level.[1] He made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 31 August of the following year, replacing Paco Montañés in the 79th minute of a 1–2 home loss against his former side Sevilla.[2]
Morillas scored his first professional goal on 17 December, netting the game's winner in a home success against Deportivo Alavés, for the season's Copa del Rey.[3] On 8 July 2015 he signed a new three-year edal with the Pericos, until 2018,[4] and was loaned to Girona FC in Segunda División late in the month.[5]
On 6 July 2016, Jairo was loaned to CD Numancia also in the second level, for one year.[6]
