Career & Clubs

Club career

Born in Seville, Andalusia, Spencer spent the vast majority of his career at hometown club Sevilla FC, whom he joined in 1913 at the age of 15. In the 1914–15 season he changed his football nickname, which until then was Enrique, to Spencer, to mislead his father, who wanted him to stop playing football to concentrate on studies. Spencer also represented Real Oviedo, after being relocated to the city to perform his military service.

International career

On 16 December 1923, in only the 12th fixture of their existence, Spencer received his only cap for Spain, a 3–0 friendly win over Portugal. The match took place in his native city, and he along with Herminio became the first Sevilla players to feature in international football. Being a Sevilla FC player he was eligible to play for the Andalusia national team, making his debut in the team's first-ever game on 19 November 1922, a quarter-final match of the 1922-23 Prince of Asturias Cup against the Valencian Community team, which ended in a 2–1 win. Both he and Herminio represented Andalusia in the 1923-24 edition, and both of them scored a goal in the tournament, Spencer netted the winner against the Valencian team in a 3–2 win in the quarter-finals, while Herminio netted the consolation goal against a Castille/Madrid XI in a 1–2 loss in the semi-finals.
