José Parra Martínez

Born in Blanes, Province of Girona, Catalonia, Parra's professional career was entirely spent with RCD Español in his native region. He signed with the club in 1947 from neighbouring Terrassa FC, going on to compete with the former in 12 La Liga seasons. Parra scored his first and only league goal for the Pericos on 17 October 1948, in a 5–0 home win against RC Celta de Vigo. He retired in June 1960 at nearly 35, after a spell with Cartagena FC.

Parra earned seven caps for Spain in one year. His first came on 9 April 1950, in a 2–2 away draw with Portugal for the 1950 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Selected by manager Guillermo Eizaguirre for the finals in Brazil, Parra played five times during the tournament to help to a final fourth place.
