Rafael Obrador Burguera (born 24 February 2004) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Serie A club Torino, on loan from Benfica.
Born in Campos, Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Obrador began playing football at the youth academy of CE Campos at the age of four, and joined RCD Mallorca's youth setup in 2014, aged ten. On 10 October 2019, while still a youth, he signed his first professional contract, agreeing to a deal until 2024.
On 19 July 2020, before even having appeared with the reserves, Obrador made his first team â and La Liga â debut for the Bermellones, coming on as a late substitute for Iddrisu Baba in a 2âÂÂ2 away draw against CA Osasuna, as his side was already relegated.
On 5 October 2020, Obrador moved to Real Madrid and returned to youth football. He finished his formation in 2022, being promoted to reserve team Real Madrid Castilla ahead of the 2022âÂÂ23 season.
Obrador immediately became a starter for Raúl's side, as Castilla narrowly missed out promotion.
On 21 August 2024, Obrador was loaned to Segunda División side Deportivo La Coruña, for one year.
On 11 July 2025, Obrador was signed by Benfica until 2030.
After making just one appearance for Benfica (as well as two appearances for the B-team) during the first half of the season, on 19 January 2026, Obrador was sent on loan to Serie A club Torino until the end of the 2025âÂÂ26 campaign. The deal included an optional buy-clause, reported to be around â¬9 million.
Obrador represented the Spain under-16s in a 3âÂÂ3 tie against Mexico on 4 December 2019, where he scored the equalizer.
