[edit]

Born in Aranjuez, Pepín played 275 official games for CA Osasuna over the course of seven La Liga seasons, having signed in the 1987 summer from local Community of Madrid side Rayo Vallecano.[1]

He left the Navarrese at the end of the 1993–94 campaign, which ended in relegation, and, at the age of nearly 35, returned to his very first senior club Real Aranjuez CF in the lower leagues.[2] With Osasuna, he also appeared in six complete matches in the 1991–92 UEFA Cup.[3]
