Rufino "Rufo" Familiar Sánchez (born 27 December 1986) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Pontevedra CF as a forward.

Club career

Born in Madrid, Rufo represented CD Coslada and CF Rayo Majadahonda as a youth, and made his senior debut with the latter's reserves during the 2005–06 season, in the regional leagues. He subsequently represented, all in his native region, CD San Fernando de Henares, AD Torrejón CF, Internacional de Madrid (two stints) and CA Pinto, all in Tercera División; his best input in the country consisted of 30 goals during the 2009–10 campaign, while in representation of the second latter club.[1]

In 2012, after impressing in a friendly match, Rufo joined Stallion FC of Philippines' United Football League.[2] He moved to fellow league team Global FC in July 2013,[3] but his transfer was blocked by Stallion after his contract was disputed by his previous club.[4] He moved back to Internacional in November 2013,[5]

On 14 January 2014, Rufo switched teams and countries again after agreeing to a contract with Thai Premier League club PTT Rayong FC.[6] He made his debut for the club on 23 February, netting the opener in a 1–1 away draw against Singhtarua FC.[7]

Ahead of the 2015 season, Rufo moved to Songkhla United FC. On 18 January 2017, he returned to Spain and signed for Atlético Sanluqueño CF in Segunda División B.[8]

Rufo returned to Global Cebu on 1 August 2017,[4] but left the Philippines Football League club in May 2018.[9] In August, he returned to Internacional, with the club now in the third division.

In January 2020, Rufo moved to Pontevedra CF.[10]
