Coaching career
Born Palma, Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Amor was a player but retired at the age of 23. He then became a manager of UD Arenal's youth setup,[2] subsequently working with the reserve team before being appointed first team manager in 2003, aged just 26.[3]
In April 2005, Amor agreed to join CD Atlético Baleares as their manager,[4] achieving promotion to Tercera División in his first season and finishing sixth in his second, one point shy of the play-offs. On 26 July 2007, he was named Jaume Bauzà's assistant at RCD Mallorca B.[5]
In 2010, Amor left the Bermellones and was appointed manager of CD San Francisco's Juvenil A squad.[6] He left the latter club the following February, and in May, he moved abroad after being named technical director at Al-Wasl FC.[7]
In April 2014, Amor signed for Al-Hilal FC, being named Sami Al-Jaber's assistant.[8] He continued to work as an assistant at Al-Wahda FC and Al-Shabab Riyadh before returning to his home country in September 2017, after being appointed manager of UD Ibiza.[9]
On 18 April 2018, Amor was sacked from Ibiza,[10] and subsequently returned to his former club Arenal to work as a technical director.[11] On 4 November of the following year, he was named Javier Aguirre's assistant at La Liga side CD Leganés.[12]
