Club career edit

Canito signed with Basque Country club Athletic Bilbao in 1948, from neighbours Barakaldo CF in the Segunda División.[1] Immediately after arriving, on 12 September, the 17-year-old made his La Liga debut, helping to a 7–2 home demolition of Real Valladolid.[2] He scored his first goal for the Lions in only his tenth appearance, in the 4–0 win against Sevilla FC also at the San Mamés Stadium.[3]

In the 1955–56 season, Canito appeared in 27 games as Athletic won the top-division title. He would also be an essential defensive player as they conquered three Copa del Rey trophies in just four years (for a total of four during his spell).[4][5]

After 15 years in the senior squad, and 440 competitive matches to his credit,[6] Canito moved to another side in the region, Deportivo Alavés, but called it quits after only a few months. He died aged 67 in his hometown of Barakaldo, Biscay.[1]

International career edit

Canito won his only cap for Spain on 10 March 1957, as he featured the full 90 minutes of a 2–2 draw in Madrid against Switzerland for the 1958 FIFA World Cup qualification stage. Neither team would make it to the finals, both trailing group winners Scotland.[7]
