Arnulfo Cortés (born July 9, 1934 ), also known by the nickname Lacua and according to other sources as Ranulfo Cortés , is a retired Mexican football player who acted both in midfield and in attack .

career

As far as understandable, Arnulfo Cortés began his career as a professional footballer at Club Deportivo Oro , for which he scored a total of 16 goals in the 1953/54 season (including three in the 4-3 home win against Club Atlante on September 27, 1953) and himself thus recommended for the World Cup squad in Mexico at the 1954 World Cup . There, however, he did not get beyond the reserve existence and was never later to be used for the Mexican national team . After another season with CD Oro, for which he only scored one goal in 1954/55 (in the 2: 3 home defeat against CD Irapuato on September 19, 1954), he moved to Club Deportivo Guadalajara before the 1955/56 season , for which he scored three goals this season.
