Club career[edit]
Escudero arrived at Atlético Madrid in late 1945, from local amateurs Club Deportivo Mediodía. He ended his first season in La Liga with ten games and two goals, but scored in double digits in eight of the following ten campaigns, most notably contributing with 28 goals combined as the Colchoneros won back-to-back national championships in the early 1950s.
On 8 March 1953, Escudero netted Atlético's 1000th goal in the top division, in a 2–3 away loss against Celta de Vigo, through a penalty kick.[1] At the end of 1957–58 he did not have his contract renewed and decided to retire from football, aged only 30.
Escudero continued working with Atlético Madrid in the following years, first as youth team coach then as assistant manager. After the sacking of Rafael García Repullo (his former teammate) early into the 1963–64 season, he was an interim for one round, a 1–2 defeat at Valencia CF on 29 December 1963.
Escudero died on 7 March 2011 in his hometown of Madrid, at the age of 83.[1]
International career[edit]
Escudero earned three caps for Spain in three-and-a-half years, his debut coming on 7 December 1952 in a friendly with Argentina played in Madrid (0–1 loss). In his only official appearance, on 17 March 1954, he scored against Turkey for the 1954 FIFA World Cup qualifiers – the third playoff match ended 2–2 in Rome, and the Spaniards were eliminated after a drawing of lots.[2]
