Biography
Héctor Yuste Cantón (born 12 January 1988) is a Spanish footballer who plays for RCD Mallorca as a defensive midfielder.
Football career
Born in Cartagena, Yuste started out at local Fuente Álamo and Real Murcia, finishing his football grooming at neighbours FC Cartagena. In 2006 he made his first appearances for the latter's main squad, in Segunda División B.
After one year loaned at amateurs AD Las Palas, Yuste returned to Cartagena, helping it return to Segunda División in 2008–09 and finishing the season in the starting XI after a coaching move. In the following campaign, as the Region of Murcia club nearly promoted again, he contributed with 18 games.
From 2010–11 to 2013–14, Yuste was relegated three times from the second level, successively with UD Salamanca, Racing de Santander and Hércules CF. For the 2014–15 season he returned to Granada CF who had loaned him to the latter two sides, making his La Liga debut on 23 August 2014 by playing the first half of a 2–1 home win against Deportivo de La Coruña (0–1 at half-time).
Late into the 2015 January transfer window, Yuste returned to division two, being loaned to RCD Mallorca. In the summer, the move was made permanent; he scored his first goal for the Balearic Islands team on 27 March 2016, helping to a 1–1 draw at UD Almería.
