José González Brand, known as Pepe Brand (13 February 1900 – 1 July 1971) was a Spanish professional football player and manager associated with Sevilla FC, Real Jaén and CD Castellón.[1]
Club career
A historical member of Sevilla in the 20s, he was one of the first footballers to play for Sevilla for his entire career, and thus be part of the so-called one-club men group.
International career
Being a Sevilla FC player, he was eligible to play for the Andalusian national team, being a member of the team that participated in the 1923-24 Prince of Asturias Cup, an inter-regional competition organized by the RFEF.[2] Brand scored the opening goal in the quarter-finals against Valencia in an eventual 3–2 win, thus reaching the semi-finals where they were eliminated by a Castile/Madrid XI after a 1-2 loss, courtesy of a brace from Juan Monjardín.[3]
Managerial career
As a coach, he managed Sevilla at three different times, with his second spell being the most successful as he led his side to a triumph at the 1939 Copa del Generalísimo Final, beating Racing de Ferrol by a score of 6–2.[4]
