Ramón de la Fuente Leal, nicknamed Lafuente (31 December 1907 – 15 September 1973)[1] was a Spanish footballer who played as a forward for Athletic Bilbao, Atlético Madrid and the Spain national team.

At Barakaldo, he stood out as an extraordinary forward, which eventually earned him a move to Athletic Bilbao in 1926, with whom he played for nine seasons.

At Bilbao, he was the most experienced member of what became a famous and successful forward line, along with José Iraragorri, Chirri II, Bata and Guillermo Gorostiza.

[2] His career was cut short prematurely in the second leg of the 1935 Copa del Presidente de la República quarter-final tie between Madrid and Sevilla FC, when a clash with goalkeeper Guillermo Eizaguirre caused Lafuente to fracture his tibia and fibula.

[10] As a coach, he managed Atlético Aviación during the first ten days of the 1940–41 season, while Ricardo Zamora was arrested and disqualified.
