Ernesto Valverde

A talented coach, formerly a successful footballer Ernesto Valverde is known to many Spanish fans. Throughout his career, he managed to play for various clubs in his native country, but spent most of his time at Athletic Bilbao, and when he finished playing himself, he began to transfer his experience and knowledge to young athletes.

Ernesto was born in the winter of 1964 in the Spanish city of Vyandar de la Vera. Nothing is known about the childhood years of his biography, as well as when he became interested in sports. Probably, football attracted him from an early age, otherwise the man would not have made such a successful career in this sport.

Nothing is known about Valverde's personal life. In his free time, he is fond of photography, and sometimes presents his work at exhibitions. His brother Mikel is a famous cartoonist in Spain.

Ernesto does not maintain a page on Instagram, but he has a Facebook profile, which is regularly updated with new photos. Although Valverde himself has not played for a long time, he tries to keep himself in shape - with a height of 172 cm, his weight is 61 kg.

Valverde started his youth club career with San Ignacio as a striker, then played for Alaves, and then moved to Espanyol, where he spent a year. He made his senior football debut in 1983, when he started playing for Alaves again, then spent a year at Sestao Sport, and in 1987 got to Espanyol, but already in the senior squad.

With his performances for the last team, the young man attracted the attention of representatives of the Barcelona coaching staff, who in 1988 invited the young athlete to join, where he stayed for the next 2 seasons. During this period, the footballer rarely appeared on the field, however, he was distinguished by stable performance. With the "blue garnet" in one year he managed to win the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, and the next year - the Spanish Cup.

In 1990, Valverde signed a contract with the Spanish club Athletic Bilbao, in which he subsequently spent most of the seasons. In his youth, he was active and assertive, strived for leadership, and therefore played most of the time at the base of the squad. For 6 years, the man played 170 games and scored 44 goals against opponents. After that he spent another year at Mallorca, and then announced the termination of his playing career.

Ernesto's excellent game was noted not only by the coaches of individual clubs. In 1986, the athlete played for the Spanish youth football team, and in 1990 - for the adult. True, both times he appeared on the field as part of the teams only once and did not bring the country goals.

Although Valverde announced his retirement, the man did not say that he was leaving the sport, he simply decided to move to the coaching staff and in 2001 started working at Athletic Bilbao. At first he coached players from the youth team, and later got into the coaching staff of the base. After spending 4 years there, Ernesto signed a contract with representatives of the Espanyol club. There he also showed good results, his biggest achievement in this team was reaching the UEFA Cup final.

In 2008 Ernesto decided to move to Greece and there he became the highest paid coach in Greek football, working with the local Olympiacos team. In the first year they managed to become champions of Greece and winners of the Greek Cup. True, this success did not stop Valverde from moving to the Spanish “Villarreal”, where he took the place of the club's head coach. But a year later Ernesto was fired, so he returned to Olympiacos. Here the man spent 2 more seasons, took the team to 1st place in the Greek championship and again took the Greek Cup.

In the 2012/2013 season, Valverde coached Valencia players before returning to Athletic Bilbao. Under his leadership, in 2015, the red-whites managed to win the Spanish Super Cup for the first time in 30 years. In 2017, Ernesto became the head coach of Barcelona, ​​whose captain is Lionel Messi. The man signed a contract for 2 years and began to show good results: Barcelona twice became the champion of Spain, won the Spanish Cup and Super Cup.

At the beginning of 2019, Barcelona extended the contract with Valverde for another season, so he continues to work as a head coach. Despite the good success of the team, after the end of the 2018/2019 season, rumors spread about Ernesto's dismissal, which, however, was quickly denied by the club president. Josep Maria Bartomeu said that only the players were to blame for leaving the Champions League that year.
