Antonio Manuel Luna Rodríguez (born 17 March 1991) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Levante UD as a left back.
Formed at Sevilla, he represented four other clubs in La Liga as well as having brief stints in England and Italy.
Born in Son Servera, Majorca, Luna finished his youth career in Andalusia with Sevilla FC, making his senior debut with the reserve side in Segunda División B. On 15 and 19 May 2010, he appeared in his first two official games with the first team, and both were decisive ones: in the first he played the full 90 minutes as his team won 3–2 away against UD Almería in the last round, finally edging RCD Mallorca for the last qualification position for the UEFA Champions League. The second was a 2–0 triumph over Atlético Madrid in the final of the Copa del Rey, again playing the full match.
On 19 January 2011, Luna was loaned to neighbouring Almería until the end of the campaign. He was regularly utilized, as the club suffered top flight relegation after a four-year stay.
After returning to Sevilla, Luna played 14 league matches in 2011–12, his first full season. He scored his first goal as a professional in a 1–2 away defeat on 29 January 2012 against Málaga CF, playing as a left midfielder.
