Sergio León Limones (born 6 January 1989) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Real Betis in La Liga as a forward.
Formed at Betis where he was mainly a reserve, he played more frequently at Reus before being signed by Elche in 2013. After finishing as top scorer in Segunda División three years later, he joined La Liga team Osasuna.
Born in Palma del Río, Córdoba, León joined Real Betis' youth ranks at the age of 15 and made his debut for the first team on 27 March 2010, playing 26 minutes in place of Juanma in a 0–1 loss against Girona FC at the Manuel Ruiz de Lopera. It would be his only appearance of the campaign, as the Verdiblancos failed to regain their La Liga status.
In the 2011 January transfer window, after featuring rarely also for the reserves over the course of 1½ seasons, León left Betis and signed for CF Reus Deportiu in the fourth division. He scored five goals in 14 games until the end of the season, helping the Catalans return to the third level after a five-year absence.
