Andrés García Soler (born 10 April 1984) is a Spanish football manager and former player who played as a defender. He is the current manager of SD Logroñés.
Career
[edit]Born in Algete, Community of Madrid, García was known as Karpin during his playing career, which consisted mainly of Tercera División and regional league football.[1][2] In May 2007, he played 21 minutes in a Segunda División B match for CD Cobeña; the club subsequently folded. After retiring, he worked in the youth categories of Alcobendas CF before taking over EMF CD Cobeña (the replacement team of Cobeña in the city), and promoted the latter to the Segunda de Aficionados.
In 2014, García moved to China to work in the Real Madrid Foundation,[3] but subsequently returned to his home country after being named manager of CD Canillas' Juvenil B side. On 14 July 2015, he was appointed at the helm of CD El Casar,[4] but left in October to work as an assistant at Getafe CF's Juvenil A side.
On 27 May 2016, García was appointed manager of CD Marchamalo in the fourth division.[5] He was sacked the following 4 April,[6] and worked in the LaLiga Football Academy in Dubai and in the Spanish Soccer Institute in Tianjin before returning to Getafe in December 2017, now as manager of the Juvenil B team.
On 26 December 2018, García switched teams and countries again after being named under-19 manager of Norwegian side Raufoss IL.[7][8] He left the club in November, and was named manager of the under-18 team of Dalian Professional in August 2020.[9]
On 7 June 2021, García replaced sacked Patricio Lara as manager of Ecuadorian Serie A side Orense SC.[10] On 12 August of the following year, he resigned.[11]
On 1 November 2022, García returned to Raufoss, now as a first team manager.[12] On 1 January 2023, however, he left the club after accepting an offer from Jönköpings Södra IF of the Swedish Superettan.[13][14]
García left Jönköpings on a mutual agreement on 14 September 2023,[15] and returned to his home country on 15 October, after being named manager of Primera Federación side SD Logroñés.[16] He was dismissed from the latter on 19 December, after just nine matches.[17]
