Luis De La Fuente (Mexican Footballer)
Luis de la Fuente y Hoyos (January 17, 1914 – May 28, 1972), nicknamed "The Pirate", was a Mexican professional footballer, playing mostly on midfielder position. De la Fuente is considered one of the finest Mexican—and thus North American—midfielders of all time, being named to the IFFHS World Team for CONCACAF in 2021.
