Luis Reñé

Luís Reñé Padrisa (18 September 1889 – 2 July 1963), born Lluís and sometimes spell as Renyé, was a Spanish footballer who played as a goalkeeper for FC Barcelona. He was the first goalkeeper in Barcelona's history to establish himself as an indisputable starter. In addition to being a footballer, he excelled in athletics, a sport in which he was champion of Catalonia in the discus throw in 1912).

The highlight of his career was winning the treble with Barcelona in the 1912–13 season (Catalan championship, Copa del Rey and Pyrenees Cup), in which he played a decisive role. In these clubs, he stood out for his ability to punch away high balls and for his great reflexes. He also had a great physique, with a height much higher than most players of the time. Eventually, his performance drew the attention of FC Barcelona, who signed him in 1911. Faced with this complaint, the Football Federation ordered the match to be replayed, but Barcelona refused to do it claiming the line-up of English players in Athletic Bilbao, so Barcelona was disqualified.

In the following season, Reñé and Barcelona got their revenge when they beat Sociedad Gimnástica in the 1912 Copa del Rey Final, in which Reñé kept a clean-sheet in a 2–0 victory, thus contributing decisively in Barça's triumph. Their victory over Gimnástica also sealed a treble, as he had helped Barça win the 1911–12 Catalan championship and the 1912 Pyrenees Cup. Reñé was once again the starting goalkeeper of a Barcelona Copa del Rey winning squad when he featured in all three games of the Copa del Rey Final (UECF) against Real Sociedad. In his last season at Barça (1913–14), he lost his place in the side to new-signing Luis Bru, thus featuring mainly as a substitute. He then moved to University SC, finishing his career in 1915.
