Higinio Ortúzar Santamaria (10 January 1915 – 8 November 1982) was a Chilean footballer who played in Spain for Barakaldo CF, Athletic Bilbao, Valencia CF, Real Valladolid and Real Sociedad.[1]
While at Athletic (one of few players born outside the Basque region to play for the club under their signing policy), he won a League and Cup double in 1943, and followed this up with further league titles playing for Valencia in 1944 and 1947.[1] In his 30s he featured for Valladolid and Real Sociedad in successive seasons, helping each to gain promotion from the second tier.
After retiring as a player, he became a football coach, and managed sides including CD Logroñés.
