Luis Saura del Pan (8 June 1890 – 18 March 1980) was a Spanish footballer who played as a forward for Athletic Bilbao and Madrid FC.
In his first season in 1912–13, he played only one cup match,[1] starting as a forward in the semifinals against his former club Athletic Bilbao, which ended in another loss, this time by 0–3.
Despite forming an attacking partnership with René Petit and Sotero Aranguren, the match ended in a goalless draw, and he was then not called up for the replay which Madrid won 2–1.
[3][11][12] In 1951, the 61-year-old Saura was appointed as the 12th president of the National Committee of Referees, replacing Pedro Escartín.
[4] By the time he reached this position, he had been registered as a Real Madrid member for almost 50 years, since 1905.
