Anthony Rubén Lozano Colón (born 25 April 1993), sometimes known as Choco Lozano, is a Honduran footballer who plays for Spanish club CD Tenerife on loan from C.D. Olimpia as a forward.
Born in Yoro, Lozano made his debut in the Honduran top division at the age of only 15, appearing for C.D. Olimpia against Club Deportivo y Social Vida on 11 January 2009. On 21 February 2010 he scored his first goals, netting a hat-trick in the Clausura tournament 6–0 win against C.D. Victoria.
In August 2010, Lozano spent time training with Tottenham Hotspur's reserve team, impressing manager Harry Redknapp. He was expected to stay with the North London side, but the deal never went through because he was underage and, therefore, could not sign a contract with a professional club.
On 11 August 2011, Lozano moved to Spain and signed with Valencia CF on a one-year loan, but was immediately loaned to neighbouring side CD Alcoyano, in Segunda División. He made his official debut against UD Las Palmas on 3 September, as a second-half substitute (0–1 away loss).
