Just like in English...soccer positions also have a couple of different names. here are a few different than one already named. I am from Mexico so they might differ a bit.
center forward= delantero central
center fullback = defensa central
right or left fullback = defensa lateral
usually though you can get away with just knowing:
forward = delantero
midfielder = medio (mediocampista)
defenders= defensa
than you can just specify
center = central
left = izquierda
right= derecha
hope I wasn't too long winded.
