José Batlle Perdomo Teixeira (born 5 January 1965) is a Uruguayan former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Born in Salto, he started his career with Club Atlético Peñarol in 1983, being later noted in 1989 by Genoa head coach Franco Scoglio during a South-American scouting visit, being signed by the rossoblu together with fellow Uruguayans Carlos "Pato" Aguilera and Rubén Paz. Perdomo, who was expected to be a mainstay within the Genoa midfield line, played 25 unimpressive matches, being remembered only for his lack of pace and acceleration, as well as his excessive playing aggressivity.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". His poor performances later led Vujadin Boškov, head coach of crosstown rivals Sampdoria, to one of his best famous quotes, declared just before the 1989–90 city derby:
"If I unleash my dog, it plays better than Perdomo."[1]
He was sold to Spanish side Real Betis for the 1990–91, where he made just six appearances, scoring one goal. He moved to Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata one year later. A notable incident during this spell saw him score a goal against local rivals Estudiantes, which was celebrated so vigorously that it registered as an earthquake on the seismological equipment at the La Plata Astronomical Observatory 600 meters away. From this Perdomo gained the nickname Terremoto (earthquake).[2] He retired in 1994 after a season with Peñarol.
