According to one or two bit of info I've just read, Paco Luna is from Jerez, Andalusia. He did play for the Andalusian club, Almeria. The biggest name club he played for in Spain was arguably Sporting Gijon, although they have been out of the top division for a while, and I don't think Paco ever played in La Primera.

Steve Archibald probably would be the closest thing to a Catalan player we've had.

It is difficult to recall any other Spanish players at Hibs.

Russell Latapy was born in Port Of Spain...

That's even further from Spain that Port Glasgow is from Glasgow.

Mike Oldfield - Magic Touch lyrics

Once in a lifetime, you find that power
To break out and run from the devil's deep clutch.
All that you need, it's the finest hour,
Is to believe in the magic touch.

A thief in the night, love steals you far away.
A thief in the night, love takes your breath away.

Can't believe it, like no other.
Love is a gift and to take you so much,
You need the blue night to discover
Only true lovers have the magic touch.

Once in a lifetime, you find that faith,
When you're under the spell and it takes control.
Everything 'round you just falls in place,
And all that you touch seems to turn to gold.

A thief in the night, love steals you far away.
A thief in the night, love takes your breath away.

Can't believe it, like no other.
Love is a gift and to take you so much,
You need the blue night to discover
Only true lovers have the magic touch

Magic, magic.
Magic, magic, magic, magic.

Once in a lifetime, you find that power
So break out and run from the devil's deep clutch.
All that you need, it's the finest hour,
Is to believe in the magic touch.

It's magic. It's magic.
Magic, magic, magic.

Can't believe it, like no other.
Love is a gift and to take you so much,
You need the blue night to discover
Only true lovers have the magic touch

Can't believe it, like no other.
Love is a gift and to take you so much,
You need the blue night to discover
Only true lovers have the magic touch

It's magic. It's magic.
It's magic.
It's magic. It's magic.
It's magic.
It's magic. It's magic.
It's magic.
It's magic. It's magic.
It's magic.

In the 90s Jo(s)e Baker(o) played for Barcelona but he was Basque rather than Catalan

I'll still never forgive him for THAT header miss against AEK. No metter how well he'd played for the 90 mins before it.

"Have hibs ever had a catalan player?"

Don't think so but we've had a fair few from Matalan.
