José Manuel "Manolo" González Álvarez (born 14 January 1979) is a Spanish retired footballer, and is the manager of RCD Espanyol.

Playing career

[edit]

Born in Folgoso do Courel, Lugo, Galicia,[1] González moved to Barcelona at the age of three,[2][3] and began his career with Colegio Dalvi at the age of eight.[3] In the following year, he moved to FC Martinenc, and spent a year with CE Sant Gabriel before making his senior debut with the former.[3]

González subsequently played for UDA Gramenet B, FC Santboià and CF Montañesa, suffering a serious knee injury with the latter.[3] He subsequently signed for UE Poble Sec, but had to retire.[3]

Managerial career

[edit]

González started his managerial career at the age of 16, being in charge of the Infantil B squad of Martinenc.[3] He subsequently managed San Gabriel in several different categories,[3] also working as an urban bus driver.[4]

In 2005, González joined CF Badalona as a manager of the Juvenil squad, and was in charge of the side for seven years before departing in May 2012.[5] On 25 May of that year, he was appointed manager of the first team of Montañesa, in Tercera División.[6]

On 20 June 2014, after missing out promotion in the play-offs, González returned to Badalona, now as manager of the main squad in Segunda División B;[7] he was presented by the club on 3 July.[8] On 7 May 2015, after leading the club to a fifth place finish, he renewed his contract until 2018.[9]

On 31 May 2018, González left Badalona to take over fellow third division side CD Ebro.[10] Despite leading the club to the round of 32 in the season's Copa del Rey and a 9th place in the league, he left on a mutual agreement on 23 May 2019.[11]

On 7 October 2019, González returned to the Escapulats, replacing sacked Juanma Pons.[12] He renewed his link with the club for a further year the following 20 May,[13] but left on 26 May 2021, after refusing a new deal.[14]

On 8 June 2021, González was named at the helm of SCR Peña Deportiva, in the newly-created Segunda División RFEF.[15] On 31 May 2023, after missing out promotion in two consecutive play-offs, he left the club,[16] and took over fellow league team RCD Espanyol B on 3 July.[17]

On 12 March 2024, González was appointed manager of Espanyol's first team in Segunda División, replacing Luis Miguel Ramis.[18] His first professional match in charge occurred five days later, a 1–0 away win over Real Zaragoza.[19]

González led Espanyol to a promotion to La Liga at first attempt, after defeating Real Oviedo in the finals of the play-offs.[20]
