Anyone know what this is all about? Did Shels have a Spanish international player on the books briefly in the 60s?

Shels met Atletico in the Fairs Cup in 64/5 so it probably came out of that. Shels put out Portuguese side Belenenses in the first round btw.

Great book reprinted and available in Easons and others by Sean Fitzpatrick on Shels cult heroes.
