In the following decade he would be more often than not an undisputed starter for the Andalusians, eventually playing 370 matches all competitions comprised.[1]At the end of the 1987\u201388 campaign, still with Sevilla in the top division, the 33-year-old \u00c1lvarez \u2013 having made just 17 league appearances \u2013 opted to move on, and signed with neighbouring CD M\u00e1laga. In summer 1991 he joined another club in the region, Segunda Divisi\u00f3n B’s Granada CF, eventually retiring at the age of 40.[2] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Coaching career[edit]After retiring, \u00c1lvarez eventually worked again with main club Sevilla, serving as assistant under several coaches, the first Joaqu\u00edn Caparr\u00f3s in 2000. He was part of Juande Ramos’ staff as they won two consecutive UEFA Cups and one Copa del Rey, amongst other accolades.In March 2010, after roughly two years as Sevilla’s director of football, \u00c1lvarez replaced former teammate Manolo Jim\u00e9nez as first-team manager following his dismissal,[1] after Luis Aragon\u00e9s, recently departed from Be\u015fikta\u015f JK, declined an offer to coach the side.[3] He led the team throughout the last ten fixtures of the season, winning six, losing four and robbing RCD Mallorca of the fourth place which qualified for the UEFA Champions League in the last minute of the last matchday, a 3\u20132 away win against neighbours UD Almer\u00eda.[4]On 19 May 2010, \u00c1lvarez was also on the bench as Sevilla won the Spanish Cup, with goals from youth graduates Diego Capel and Jes\u00fas Navas (2\u20130).[5] Four months later, following two losses and one draw in three games (two in the league and one in the UEFA Europa League), he was sacked.[6]Managerial statistics[edit]As of 26 September 2010TeamNationFromToRecordPlayedWDLWin\u00a0%Sevilla26 March 201027 September 201021102947.6Honours[edit]Manager[edit]References[edit]^ a b “El mariscal del \u00e1rea, ante el gran reto de su carrera, despu\u00e9s de d\u00e9cadas de entrega as Sevilla FC” [The marshall of the box, before the greatest challenge of his career, after years of giving to Sevilla FC] (in Spanish).
