Source-derived summary

Roberto Iván Agustín Suárez (born 16 April 1979) is a Spanish retired footballer who played mainly as a midfielder.

He spent most of his career with Mirandés (three spells), competing with the club in all major levels but La Liga and appearing in more than 300 competitive matches.

Club career

Born in Logroño, La Rioja, Agustín began his senior career with CD Mirandés, moving in 2001 to Segunda División B side Amurrio Club. In the following summer he returned to his previous club, achieving promotion to that level in his first season.

In 2004, Agustín joined Algeciras CF also in division three, continuing to play in that tier in 2005–06, with Terrassa FC. He returned to Mirandés for a third stint afterwards, contributing 14 games in the 2011–12 campaign (1,020 minutes overall) as his team achieved promotion in the playoffs, reaching Segunda División for the first time in their history.

Agustín made his debut in the latter competition on 6 October 2012 – at the age of 33 years and five months – starting in a 1–2 home loss against Elche CF. He scored his first professional goal on 1 December 2013, but in a 3–1 defeat at CE Sabadell FC.

On 11 August 2014, aged 35, Agustín announced his retirement, being immediately appointed his last club's fitness coach.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Iván Agustín” as spanish footballer. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA productive starting point for separating a subject’s documented career from later reputation and commemoration. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1979, 2001, 2004, 2005—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1979-04-16. The account is most persuasive where Iván, Agustín and Spanish can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as spanish footballer. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 22, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q5923366. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1979, 2001, 2004 and 2005.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
