Julian Lopetegui, young spanish Headcoach


Probably many who do not know who he is, he is a young coach who now handles FC Porto. He is a former goalkeeper who played for barcelona and Real Madrid. He was born on August 28, 1966.

He began his football career of Real Sociedad, then it was bought by Real Madrid to play at Real Madrid. After playing only one game he was loaned to ud las palmas there he played 31 times. After that he returned to Real Madrid but he never got a chance to play. Having unused in Madrid later he moved to CD Logrones, where he appeared regularly as the main goalkeeper. Nice appearance at Logrones eventually brought him called up to the Spain. His debut was as a substitute Andoni Zubizareta in a friendly match against Croatia. In the match he put at minute 30 and the condition of Spain 2-0 on 23 March 1994. He then continued his career in barca but the same fate as in Madrid he doesnt play regulerly. After failing along barca then he went on to Rayo Vallecano he played regularly there and end his career there in 2002.

Coaching career started from Rayo Vallecano in 2003 after he retired but bad career there. He was fired after 10 games played ended with relegation to the third division Rayo Spain. After being fired he became a commentator la Sexta for the World Cup 2006. In 2008, then he returned to coach for Real Madrid Castilla in the third Spanish  division . In 2010 he continued his coaching career at the Spanish youth national team. He won the European Cup trophy U-19 in 2012 and the European Cup U-21 in 2013. Then he left the Spanish youth national team on April 30, 2014 due contract runs out. On 6 May 2014 he was appointed as coach of FC Porto. In his first season he successfully brings Porto to reach quarter finals in Uefa Chapions League but unfortunately defeat by bayern Munich with 6-1 on aggregate.. In the first season porto managed to rank third in the league and sporting portugal under Benfica Lisbon.

I wish him success with FC Porto despite a disappointing first season, he is one of the potential of young coaches who could have equaled pep Guardiola or Jose Mourinho. the style of the Spanish national team to play attacking style.
