Rubén Epitié


Rubén Epitié-Dyowe Roig, known as Epitié, is an Equatoguinean retired footballer who played as a forward.

Club career

Born in Manresa, Barcelona, Catalonia, Epitié spent the vast majority of his senior career in Spain, but never appeared in higher than the third division.
He represented CE Manresa, FC Andorra, CD La Oliva, ACD San Marcial, CD Logroñés, Jerez Industrial CF, Algeciras CF, AD Mar Menor-San Javier, CF Peralada, UD Poblense, CD Binéfar, CF Vilanova, CD Montcada, CF Igualada, UE Rubí, CE Europa and UE Castelldefels.

International career

As many players born in Spain, Epitié chose to represent Equatorial Guinea through ancestry – his father hailed from that country, while his mother was Spanish. He made his senior debut in 2006.

Personal life

Epitié's older brother, Juan, was also a footballer – and a forward. He too spent most of his professional career in Spain, and also appeared for Equatorial Guinea internationally.
