Adelfo Magallanes Campos was a Peruvian footballer. He was part of the first golden era of the Peru national football team.
Magallanes was born in Cañete on August 29, 1913. He developed his footballing skills as part of Alianza Lima, and became an important part of the famed Rodillo Negro era of the club. Nicknamed El Bólido, he played in the interior right and became the replacement of Alberto Montellanos in the Rodillo Negro. His skill did not go unnoticed, and was soon called up to participate in the 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin.
After retiring from playing, he became Alianza Lima's coach in two periods (1946–52 and 1954–56), and in-between those periods he went to manage in Colombia. He is the coach with which Alianza Lima has won the most titles (four: 1948, 1952, 1954, and 1955). Adelfo Magallanes died in 1989 at the age of 76.
Temporadas en Alianza Lima: 1930-44 (77 partidos, 16 goles). Títulos: Tres en Primera (1931,32,33) y uno en segunda división (1939).
