Juan Ferrando Fenoll (Catalan: Juan Ferrando; born 2 January 1981 in Barcelona[1]) is a Spanish football manager. He is currently the head coach of Indian Super League club FC Goa.
Career
After several injuries as a footballer, Ferrando started his managerial career at age 18. He graduated from the school of RCD Espanyol, where he was campus and methodological coordinator (fitness, tactical and technical football); and had his 'Prácticum' at FC Barcelona B. He then spent consecutive seasons managing CE Premià, Terrassa and Hospitalet.
In the 2012−2013 season he became part of the technical staff of La Liga club Málaga, being appointed head coach of the club's youth team.Then, in mid-June 2013, he joined Moldovan National Division champions Sheriff Tiraspol as assistant coach and in July he appointed as the head coach with whom he won the Moldovan Super Cup. As a manager of Sheriff Tiraspol, Ferrando led the Moldovans to the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round for the first time in their history. Failing to overcome Diamo Zagreb to further advance to the Group Stage, he managed to eliminate Vojvodina during the Europa League play-off Round, advancing Sheriff to the Europa League Group Stage for the 2nd time in club history. Playing against Tottenham, Anzhi and Tromsø, Sheriff finished third with 6 points, two short of qualification to the next phase.[2] The day after, he was dismissed from Sheriff.
In 2014, Ferrando moved to Greece and took over management of Superleague side Ergotelis,[3] but was fired after the two first matches of the 2014–15 season, having suffered two losses.[4] Returning to Spain in 2015, he was hired by Cultural Leonesa finishing in 7th place. In 2017, Linares Deportivo relied on Ferrando for the last days of the 2016/17 league, but he could do little to prevent the team from being relegated.[5] Shortly after Ferrando submitted his resignation for disagreements of sports planning, he was hired by newly formed Greek 3rd Division side Volos,[6] whom he managed to consecutively promote to the 2nd and 1st Divisions in the following two years.
On 30 April 2020, he was appointed as the head coach of Indian Super League club FC Goa.[7]
