Delfí Geli i Roura (born 22 April 1969) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a right back, and the current president of Girona FC.
Born in Salt, Girona, Catalonia, Geli began his professional career as a forward, while playing for hometown's Girona FC and FC Barcelona (he only appeared once for the latter's first team in La Liga, in a 0–0 home draw against Real Oviedo on 31 January 1990). He reconverted to right back at Albacete Balompié, signing with the Castile-La Mancha club in the 1991 summer and playing in 32 games in its first-ever season in the top division.
In 1994–95, after scoring nine league goals for Albacete in his last two seasons combined, Geli joined Atlético Madrid. He was instrumental in the capital side's double conquest in the following campaign, playing 49 games across all competitions and netting twice.
After a second spell with Albacete, now in Segunda División, 31-year-old Geli moved to Deportivo Alavés in 2000, appearing in 35 matches in his first year as the Basques finished in tenth position. While playing in the season's UEFA Cup final, he scored the decisive goal – an own golden goal which made the score 5–4 to opponents Liverpool.
