Evaristo San Miguel Cobián (13 July 1909 – 4 November 1990) was a Spanish footballer who played as a forward for Real Madrid and Racing de Santander in the early 1930s.
Playing career
Born on 13 July 1909 in the Asturias town of Infiesto,[1][2] Evaristo and his brother Pedro began their football career at hometown club Real Unión Deportiva in the mid-1920s, where they played until it merged with Club Deportivo Español to form Real Valladolid in September 1928.[3]
Despite lacking shooting power, he made up for it with his exquisite technique, which caught the attention of the top-flight team Real Madrid,[3] making his official debut for the club in a La Liga match against Athletic Bilbao on 1 December 1929 at the San Mamés, which ended in a 1–2 loss, and scoring his first goal for the club in the following month, on 5 January 1930, in a 6–0 trashing of his future club Racing de Santander.[4] In his first (and only) season at the club, he stayed for only season, scoring a total of 2 goals in 16 official matches, including 1 goal in 12 La Liga matches, and 1 goal in 4 regional championship matches, which Madrid won.[1][2][4]
After leaving Madrid, San Miguel played one season each at Castilla (1931–32) and Real Valladolid (1932–33) before returning to the top-flight with Racing de Santander, where he retired in 1934, aged 25.[5] In total, he scored 4 goals in 17 La Liga matches for Madrid and Santander.[6]
Death
San Miguel died on 4 November 1990, at the age of 81.[5]
