[edit] Club career
A product of Sporting de Gijón's cantera system, Canella first appeared with the main side during 2006–07, and established himself as first-choice in the following year, as the Asturias side returned to the first division after a 10-year hiatus.
He scored his first top flight goal on 5 October 2008, in a 2–0 win at RCD Mallorca, being an undisputed starter throughout the campaign. According to COPE Radio, Real Madrid was likely to acquire his services for 2009–10.[1]
[edit] International career
Internationally, Canella helped Spain win the 2006 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship, played at the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup still being under-19, and then moved to the U21s.
