David Aganzo Méndez (born 10 January 1981 in Madrid) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Hércules CF as a striker.

Club career

Aganzo was a product of Real Madrid's youth system, and made his debut with the first team on 20 February 2000, in a 1–1 draw at Valencia CF. Never a part of the team's plans, he would serve four consecutive loans: CF Extremadura, RCD Espanyol, Real Valladolid and Levante UD. However, after appearing against Rosenborg BK in the 1999–2000 UEFA Champions League, he earned a winner's medal.

In 2004–05, Aganzo signed with Racing de Santander in La Liga, where he was rarely used except in his first year. In January 2006, he had a small loan stint at Beitar Jerusalem FC.

After moving Deportivo Alavés in 2007–08,^[1] with 10 goals to help the Basque side narrowly avoid second division relegation, Aganzo was released at the end of the season, joining another team in that level, freshly promoted Rayo Vallecano, on a free transfer.^[2] He scored a career-best 12 goals in his first season as the team easily retained its newfound division status, being regularly used during three years and leaving the club in July 2011, aged 30.

International career

Aganzo represented Spain at the 1999 FIFA World Youth Championship, as the nation emerged victorious.
