José María Núñez Urrezola (born 22 January 1952) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a left back.

He amassed La Liga totals of 197 games and two goals over the course of 12 seasons, 11 of those with Athletic Bilbao.

Football career

Born in Tolosa, Gipuzkoa, Núñez was a youth product of Athletic Bilbao, and made his senior debut with the reserve team in 1971. He was promoted to the main squad two years later, but only appeared in five La Liga matches in his first three seasons combined, his debut in the competition coming on 7 September 1974 in a 0–2 away loss against CD Málaga.[1]

After two years in Segunda División with Sporting de Gijón, on loan,[2] Núñez returned to his previous club, going on to be regularly played during his eight-year tenure in his second spell. From 1982 to 1984, as the Lions won back to back national championships, he contributed with a total of 50 appearances, also playing the full 90 minutes in the final of the 1984 Copa del Rey which was won at the expense of FC Barcelona (1–0).[3]

After spending the 1986–87 and 1987–88 campaigns in the second level with Sestao Sport Club, Núñez retired at the age of 36.[4][5]
