Kepa Blanco González (born January 13, 1984 in Marbella, Málaga) is a Spanish footballer. He currently plays for Getafe CF.

Brought up through the ranks of Sevilla, he fell out of favour in Spain in 2006-07 and on January 22nd 2007 he agreed a loan move to West Ham United in the Premiership until the end of the season, with the option of a permanent move available. [1]

On his debut for West Ham, he scored a 77th minute goal after only being on for 70 seconds with his first touch of the game against Liverpool on 30 January 2007 [2].

In July 2007, he agreed a four-year deal with La Liga's Getafe CF, with Sevilla retaining the option of repurchasing the striker the next season or the one after that.[3]
