Eduard Manchón

Manchón was the final component of the legendary Barça forward line from the beginning of the 1950s immortalised in song by singer Joan Manuel Serrat in song. A left winger of exceptional class, he stood out due to his great speed and he was a specialist in taking players on. His partnership with Kubala was perfect; the cries of 'Manchón!' from the Hungarian star to his team mates often preceded Barça's best moments in attack. 

In 1998 at Coma-ruga a beach tournament in his name was created in which he participated until 2008. He holds the record with the Barça Veterans, playing for them at the age of 78.
