[edit] Biography
Lopéz Caro came to Real Madrid in 2001 to take charge of the reserve team - Real Madrid B. He quietly earned a reputation at Madrid after lifting the B team back into the Segunda división. In 2005/2006, he became first team coach, replacing Brazilian Vanderlei Luxemburgo who was fired on 4 December 2005. Prior to that, he had worked at RCD Mallorca and was on the bench during their brief run in the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2000.
On 27 May 2006 it was announced that he would take over as head coach of Spanish La Liga side Racing de Santander, but he joined Levante UD 2 months later. However, midway through the season, with his team lying in 17th place in the table, he was sacked on 15 January 2007.
On 8 October 2007 he was appointed new manager of Celta de Vigo, replacing Hristo Stoichkov after a string of very unsuccessful games.
On 10 March 2008 he was fired as the manager of the club, due to a string of bad results. He was the 11th coach in the second division of Spain to lose his job that season.
In June 2010, he finished his contract with Spain Under-21 and he decided not to continue anymore and to sign a contract with the Romanian Liga 1 club FC Vaslui.[1]
López Caro became the best paid coach in the history of the Romanian Liga 1, FC Vaslui offering him a deal of €3,5 million of euros + bonuses for 3 years of contract.[2]
After poor results, he was released on a mutual termination from FC Vaslui on a clause of $1 million.
