He amassed Segunda División totals of 275 matches and six goals over ten seasons, in representation of four clubs. In La Liga, he appeared for Betis, Sevilla and Xerez.
Redondo was born in Camas, Seville, Andalusia. During his professional career, spent mainly in the second division, he also had La Liga spells with both main clubs from Seville: he appeared in only two games late into the 1996–97 season with Real Betis, being regularly played by Sevilla FC in two of his three years but being released prior to their consecutive UEFA Cup exploits.
In the summer of 2007, after a couple of second-level campaigns with Hércules CF,[1] the 30-year-old Redondo joined fellow league side Xerez CD, where he would be used almost exclusively as a backup, playing a total of only 39 matches over three seasons, the last spent in the top flight with relegation. Subsequently, he renewed his contract for a further year.
In June 2011, after making 33 appearances – 31 starts – to help to an eighth-place finish, Redondo left Xerez and retired from football the following year, after not being able to find a team.
