Club career

Born in Córdoba, Andalusia, Berrocal spent his first years as a senior with Real Madrid's C team. In January 2009 he was loaned to Racing de Santander, playing with both the first and B sides with the Cantabrians.[1] On 1 March 2009, he first appeared for the main squad and in La Liga, playing the last minute of the 1–1 home draw against CA Osasuna.[2] The following week, again from the bench, he scored in a 5–3 loss at Deportivo de La Coruña.[3]

For the 2009–10 season, Berrocal was released by Real Madrid and signed a two-year deal with Granada CF of Segunda División B.[4] He appeared regularly throughout his first year as the latter returned to the Segunda División after more than 20 years, contributing five goals. However, he would be released in the summer, moving to another club in that league, AD Ceuta.[5]

On 26 June 2013, after spells with CD San Roque de Lepe (third division)[6] and Recreativo de Huelva (second),[7] Berrocal joined a host of compatriots at Buriram United F.C. in the Thai Premier League.[8] He marked his league debut with a goal, in a 2–1 away win over Suphanburi FC.
