His playing career ended due to injury without a first-team appearance for Hércules, and he made his professional managerial debut for the same team in Segunda División in 2006. He won promotion from that division with Alavés and Getafe in successive seasons, also leading the latter to a best-ever La Liga finish of fifth in 2019.
