José Gonzalvo Falcón (16 January 1920 – 31 May 1978), sometimes referred to as Gonzalvo II or – especially as of late – by the Catalan rendition of his given name Josep Gonzalvo, was a Catalan footballer and manager from Spain. Until 1977, it was legally prohibited in Spain to register given names in Catalan, as only Spanish (Castilian) names were permitted under Francoist and early post-Franco civil registry laws. Gonzalvo played for, among others, FC Barcelona, Spain and the Catalan XI. After retiring as a player, he became a coach and briefly managed Barcelona. He died in 1978 after an unsuccessful operation. Read more on Wikipedia
