José Padrón Martín (5 May 1907 – 3 December 1966[1]) was a Spanish footballer who played for RCD Español, Sevilla FC and FC Barcelona in Spain and various clubs in France. He won the Copa del Rey with Español in 1928–29; he is listed in some sources as one of the goalscorers in the final,[2] and in others as one of five players sent off[3] (there is confusion between him and Francisco Tena in both respects).[4]
After leaving French team Cannes in 1937, he signed for Sochaux in Ligue 1, where he won the 1937–38 championship, playing just eight games and scoring two goals.[5]
A native of Las Palmas, the capital of Gran Canaria and the co-capital of the Canary Islands, Padrón played five times for the Spain national team, scoring two goals. He made his début in a 5–0 victory against Portugal on 17 March 1929, scoring two goals.[5]
During World War 2, he served under Raymond Dronne as part of the Free France, being part of the North African campaign, the Normandy landings, and took part in the Liberation of Paris from the Nazis.[5] He died in the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital on 3 December 1966
