Eduardo María Montejo Aristegui (15 August 1879 – 14 April 1962) was a Spanish footballer who played as a forward for Athletic Club.[1] Although little has been recorded of his life, he was one of the most important footballers in the amateur beginnings of Athletic Club, being among the 7 founders of the club in 1898, and then serving the club as a forward, netting a goal in the 1903 Copa del Rey Final, which was the club's first-ever official title.[2]
Born in Biscay, Montejo was one of the 7 students belonging to the Gymnasium Zamacois who founded the Athletic Club in 1898.[3] Although the club was founded in 1898, Athletic was not officially established until 5 September 1901, in the infamous meeting held in the Café García, in which Montejo was one of the 33 socios (co-founders) of the club.[4]
He then become one of the first footballers of the newly formed Athletic Club, playing as a forward. Together with Juan Astorquia, Alejandro de la Sota, Armand Cazeaux and Walter Evans, he was part of the team that won the first-ever Copa del Rey in 1903, in which Montejo contributed with the equaliser to level it at 2–2 in an eventual 3–2 comeback win over Madrid FC in the final.[5] In the 1904 Copa del Rey Final, Athletic were declared winners again without playing a match after their opponents failed to turn up.[6]
