Manuel Tena López, Tena (born February 3, 1978 in Alcalá de Henares, Spain) is a football central defender, currently playing in La Liga's Getafe CF.

He grew as a player in the ranks of Real Madrid, and debuted (his only game for the club) in the last matchday of 1998-99, playing 10 minutes in a 3-1 home win over Deportivo La Coruña.

Tena moved to Real Valladolid in 1999, playing a further 23 first division matches, and being loaned to Córdoba CF in between. In 2002, he moved to Getafe CF, also in Madrid and by then in the second division and, instrumental while the team achieved promotion to the top-flight league, he saw little action after, subbing in the final minutes or playing through injuries and suspensions to teammates.
