Club career
The son of a former goalkeeper, also named Manuel (1910–70), Bueno was born in Seville, Andalusia, and started playing with Cádiz CF in Segunda División. In 1959, the 19-year-old signed with Real Madrid, where he would remain for the following 11 campaigns.
Barred by Francisco Gento at both club and international level, Bueno featured rarely for the latter club, never appearing in more than nine league games in all the seasons except his last, where he also scored a career-best seven goals to help to a fourth-place finish. He left in the 1971 summer with competitive totals of 119 matches and 27 goals, retiring from the professionals at the end of 1972–73 after two years – one spent in each major level – with Sevilla FC.
