Dieter Daniel Villalpando Pérez (born 4 August 1991) is a Mexican professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Liga de Expansión MX club Tepatitlán.[1]

Career

Villalpando developed through the youth academy of Pachuca and made his Primera División debut during the Clausura 2014 tournament. That season, he featured regularly and contributed to the team’s runner-up finish against León.

In 2015, he represented Tigres UANL in the Clausura and Morelia in the Apertura. With Tigres, he was part of the squad that finished as runner-up in the Copa Libertadores. In 2016, he joined Atlas before transferring to Chiapas midway through the year. His most active campaign came in the Clausura 2017, when he appeared in all 17 regular-season matches, starting 14, and accumulated 1,216 minutes of play.

Villalpando signed with Necaxa for the Apertura 2017. Although his participation was less consistent that semester, he played a significant role in 2018, helping the team secure both the Copa MX and the Supercopa MX. He also surpassed 1,000 minutes of league play and scored two goals across both tournaments.[2]

He transferred to Guadalajara for the Clausura 2019. His contract was terminated in November 2020 following accusations of sexual abuse.[3]

In the latter stages of his career, Villalpando played for Puebla, Necaxa, Atlético San Luis, and Juárez.

In January 2026, Villalpando moved to Chile and joined Everton de Viña del Mar.[4] He was released on 18 June after suffering a car accident allegedly due to drunk driving.[5]

After returning from Chile, his contract with FC Juárez was terminated, so in August 2026 he signed with Tepatitlán F.C. as a free agent.[1]

International

Villalpando made his debut for the senior Mexico national team on 16 December 2023 in a friendly against Colombia.[6]
