Raúl Albentosa Redal (born 7 September 1988) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Danish Superliga club Vejle Boldklub.

Born in Alzira, Valencia, Albentosa played youth football with local Elche CF, making his senior debuts in 2007–08 season with the B-team in the Tercera División. On 15 June 2008 he played his first official game with the main squad, starting in a 0–1 away loss against Xerez CD.

In August 2009, Albentosa was loaned to Caravaca CF. He returned to Elche in January of the following year, however, and played in a further two contests in the Segunda División until the end of the campaign.

In the following years, Albentosa did not settle with any team. He competed in the fourth tier with Real Murcia Imperial, representing CD San Roque de Lepe and Cádiz CF in the Segunda División B.

On 21 July 2013, Albentosa signed with SD Eibar, freshly promoted to the second division. He scored his first professional goal on 2 March of the following year, netting the last in a 3–0 home win against Sporting de Gijón.

Albentosa played 33 matches in 2013–14, helping the Armeros achieve promotion to La Liga for the first time ever. He made his debut in the competition on 24 August 2014, starting in a 1–0 home win over Real Sociedad; on 19 September, through a header, he scored his first goal in the top level, his being the second in a 2–0 away success against Elche CF.

On 16 January 2015, Albentosa signed for Derby County on a two-and-a-half year deal, after the English club paid the €600,000 of his buyout clause. He made his competitive debut for his new team eight days later, playing the first half of a 2–0 home victory against Chesterfield in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Albentosa returned to Spain and its top level in the 2015 summer, after agreeing to a one-year loan deal with Málaga CF. On 9 July 2016, he signed a permanent four-year contract with fellow league club Deportivo de La Coruña.
