About Iván Campo

Iván Campo Ramos is a Spanish former professional footballer. Originally a centre-back, he featured in a defensive midfield role in the later years of his career. On 19 August 2006, in the first match of the new season, Campo scored a long-range drive which caught Tottenham Hotspur and England's Paul Robinson off-guard and flew into the bottom corner of the net. He scored his first goal against Barnsley in a 3–0 win, but after only featuring in roughly a third of the league's matches, the 35-year-old was released by manager Roy Keane at the end of the season.
