José Gragera Amado (born 14 May 2000) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Burgos CF, on loan from RCD Espanyol.

Club career

Gragera was born in Gijón, Asturias, and joined Sporting de Gijón's youth setup in 2008, from La Asunción CF. On 24 January 2018, while still a youth, he signed a professional three-year deal with the club.[2]

Gragera made his senior debut with the reserves on 16 December 2017, coming on as a late substitute for Pedro Díaz in a 1–0 Segunda División B away win against Arenas Club de Getxo. He scored his first goal the following 14 October, netting the B's second in a 2–0 win at CD Izarra.

Gragera made his first team debut on 8 June 2019, again replacing Díaz in a 1–0 home defeat of Cádiz CF in the Segunda División.[3] He scored his first professional goal on 20 September 2020, netting the game's only in an away success over FC Cartagena.

On 31 January 2023, Gragera signed a five-and-a-half-year contract with La Liga side RCD Espanyol.[4] He made his debut in the category on 4 February, playing 30 minutes in a 1–1 home draw against CA Osasuna, and scored his first goal in the division on 18 March, but in a 3–1 home loss to RC Celta de Vigo.

Gragera became a regular starter in the 2023–24 campaign as the Pericos returned to the top tier at first attempt, but subsequently had limited playing time due to injuries.[5] On 30 July 2025, he moved to second division side Deportivo de La Coruña on loan for one year.[6]

On 25 July 2026, after another top-tier promotion, Gragera moved to second division side Burgos CF also on a one-year loan deal.[7]
