Football career

Born in Lleida, Catalonia, Riau emerged through Levante UD's youth system, reaching the club at the age of 15. In 2007–08 he appeared in four games with the reserve team, as the season ended in relegation from Segunda División B; he made his debut on 27 August 2007 in a 2–2 away draw against Ontinyent CF, starting and scoring in the match.[3]

From 2008 to 2010, Riau competed again in the third level, with Valencia CF's B-side. After suffering relegation at the end of his second campaign, he signed for three years with FC Cartagena in Segunda División.[4]

Riau made his league debut with Efesé on 3 October 2010, playing ten minutes in a 1–1 draw at CD Tenerife.[5] His stay with the Murcian club was greatly hampered by injuries, however,[2][6] and he was also loaned to former side Valencia B in January 2011.
