José Manuel Kindelán Duany (8 October 1887 – 9 November 1919[1]) was a Spanish referee[2] and footballer who played as a defender for Atlético Madrid.
[5] His great campaign with Español earned him a move to Sociedad Gimnástica in 1909, where he featured alongside the likes of José Carruana and Sócrates Quintana.
[6] Kindelán once again played an important role in the first piece of silverware of a club, this time contributing to Gimnástica winning the 1909–10 Centro Championship, and again in 1910–11 and 1913–14.
In 1912, he helped Gimnástica reach which still remains the only Copa del Rey final in the club's history, which they lost 0–2 to FC Barcelona.
[7] On 9 December 1912, Kindelán of Gimnástica played a friendly match for Valencia's Club Hispania against Madrid FC, which ended in a 1–3 loss.
