By Paul Madden
1957: Victor Munoz: Midfielder Munoz began his career at Real Zaragoza and later joined Barcelona where he won eight trophies including two UEFA Cup Winners' Cup crowns and a Primera Liga. After a spell with Sampdoria in Italy he returned to Zaragoza and had a brief spell at St Mirren in Scotland before he retired. He won 30 caps for Spain and as a coach he had spells in charge of a number of teams in the Primera and lower leagues with the highlight being his Copa del Rey and Spanish Supercopa crowns with Zaragoza in 2004.
1982: Inigo Velez: After beginning his career in the lower leagues forward Velez got his first taste of Primera Liga football with Murcia in 2007/08 but managed just one goal in a season that ended in relegation. Following relegation Velez joined Athletic Bilbao but failed to make an impact and was sold on to Numancia after one season, in which he made just four apperances for los Leones.
