José Berrondo Silva

José Berrondo Silva (26 October 1890 – 21 August 1936) was a Spanish footballer who played as a defender for FC Barcelona and Espanyol. He was also a referee and a Basque pelota player.

Biography José Berrondo was born in Bilbao, but it was in Valencian Community where he began to play football, joining his hometown club Hispania FC during the 1911–12 season, before signing for FC Barcelona in the following season. In his only season at Barcelona (1912–13), Berrondo won the Copa del Rey and the Pyrenees Cup. He also played in the Pyrenees Cup final, this time as a starter, netting an own goal in a 7–2 victory over Cométe et Simot.

Berrondo then moved to Espanyol and ended his career at the end of the 1913–14 season.

Five years later, in 1919, the 29-year-old José Berrondo reversed his decision to retire and returned to Valencia to join Valencia CF's reserve team, making his debut with the first team on 14 May 1920 against FC Cartagena. He went on to become the honorary president of Sporting de Sagunto.
