Antoni Lluís Adrover Colom (born 14 June 1982), known as Tuni, is a Spanish former professional footballer who played mainly as an attacking midfielder.

He amassed La Liga totals of 106 matches and four goals over seven seasons, all with Mallorca.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Sóller, Mallorca, Balearic Islands,[2] Tuni made his professional debut with hometown RCD Mallorca's first team during the 2002–03 season, making five appearances and scoring one goal.[3] He played his first La Liga match on 8 December 2002 in a 1–5 home loss against Real Madrid,[4] and would be loaned for the following campaign to Segunda División side UD Salamanca.[5]

After four seasons in which his role was irregular (65 appearances from 2004 to 2006, 27 the following two),[6][7] Tuni was loaned again, to second-tier Hércules CF for the duration of 2008–09.[8] Returned to Mallorca for the subsequent top-flight campaign, he suffered a severe knee injury which limited his participation to just nine games out of 38.[9]

In late January 2011, Tuni was loaned to Gimnàstic de Tarragona for five months,[10] and contributed seven starts – 560 minutes in total – as they narrowly avoided relegation from division two. He became a free agent in July, and signed a permanent contract with the Catalans.

Tuni joined Iraklis F.C. on 11 January 2013, teaming up with several compatriots at the Football League (Greece) club.[11]
