Club career
Born in Mataró, Barcelona, Catalonia, Fragoso played youth football for RCD Espanyol and Real Madrid. He made his senior debut with the former's B-team during the 2000–01 season, in Segunda División B, and spent most of his career in that tier, representing CF Extremadura, FC Barcelona B, Cádiz CF, UD Melilla, CD Atlético Baleares, CE L'Hospitalet, Lleida Esportiu and La Roda CF.
At the professional level, Fragoso appeared for Ciudad de Murcia – later renamed Granada 74 CF – Cádiz and Albacete Balompié,[1] being relegated with all the clubs from Segunda División. With the second, he only missed two league games during the 2009–10 campaign, scoring in a 4–3 home win against Albacete.[2]
On 3 March 2014, aged nearly 32, Fragoso moved abroad for the first time in his career, signing with Chivas USA in the Major League Soccer.[3] Just five weeks later, however, he was waived,[4] returning to his homeland and joining Lleida.[5]
