Óscar García Junyent (born 26 April 1973), known simply as Óscar, is a Spanish retired footballer, and a current manager. As a player he was a versatile offensive option, able to play as an attacking midfielder or a second striker. He played most of his 14-year professional career with Barcelona, with relative impact, appearing for four other clubs. In La Liga Óscar amassed totals of 169 games and 31 goals over the course of 12 seasons, also representing Espanyol (four seasons), Albacete, Lleida and Valencia (one apiece). In 2009, he started working as a manager. ==Playing career== Born in Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia, Óscar made his professional debut with FC Barcelona, his local team. Between 1992 and 1994 he played in five La Liga matches for ''Barça'' who were champions each year and, after a loan at fellow top division Albacete Balompié, he returned and was often used (with good results) in a variety of offensive roles: during the 1995–96 season he scored 10 league goals, the most in the squad, even though he only started 11 of his 28 appearances;〔("Cruyff me decía: 'Sal y liquida'" ("Cruyff told me: 'Get out there and finish them off'") ); El País, 6 April 2009 〕 Barcelona came out empty in silverware, however. With his role gradually diminishing, Óscar joined Valencia CF for one season, finishing off with ''Barça'' neighbours RCD Espanyol (teaming up again with brother Roger, for three seasons) and UE Lleida and retiring in June 2005 at the age of 32. On 7 January 2001, whilst playing for the second club against CD Numancia, he was taken to hospital after swallowing his tongue;〔(Roma continue record start ); BBC Sport, 8 January 2001〕 in the following summer, he nearly signed for West Ham United, but an eventual deal fell through after a one week's trial and he returned to Espanyol,〔(Óscar García no ficha por el West Ham (Óscar García does not sign with West Ham) ); El Mundo, 21 July 2002 〕 with whom he never scored more than one goal per season, during four years. For Spain, Óscar appeared for the nation at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, netting twice for the eventual quarterfinalists. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Óscar García Junyent」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
