Tomás Estrada (footballer)

Tomás Estrada del Río (1888 – unknown) was a Spanish footballer who played as a midfielder for Recreativo de Huelva and Madrid FC in the early 20th century.

[5] On 7 February 1909, the local press reported on Club Español de Madrid's invitation to Estrada from Huelva to play some matches with them, taking advantage of the fact that he was studying to be a draughtsman in the Spanish capital.

[6] Madrid FC was quick to notice this too, and made the same invitation, and thus, Estrada played on loan for Madrid FC,[6] starting in a total of four matches during the 1909–10 season, two in the first edition of the friendly tournament Copa Rodríguez Arzuaga (won by Gimnástica), and the other two in the 1910 Copa del Rey (UECF).

[7] On the latter occasion, Madrid played with four players from Huelva, the other three being the Pérez de Guzmán brothers (Paco, Luís, José).

At one point, Estrada was everything at Recreativo: player, captain, referee, and manager, and also correspondent in Huelva for the weekly Madrid Sport.
