Claudio Giráldez González (born 24 February 1988) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a left back, and is the manager of La Liga club Celta Vigo.
Playing career
Born in O Porriño, Pontevedra, Galicia, Giráldez joined Real Madrid's youth setup in 2001, from hometown side Porriño Industrial. He made his senior debut with the C-team during the 2006–07 season, in Tercera División.
In 2007, after one appearance with Real's reserves in Segunda División B, Giráldez moved to cross-town rivals Atlético Madrid and was assigned to the B-team also in the third division. [1]
Giráldez returned to his home region in 2009, joining fellow third tier side Pontevedra. [2] He signed for Ourense in the fourth level on 28 July 2011, [3] helping in their promotion to the third division in his first season; he left the latter club in May 2013. [4]
On 17 June 2013, Giráldez agreed to a deal with Coruxo in the third level. [5] After being sparingly used during the campaign, he returned to his first club Porriño in 2014, where he scored a career-best eight goals during the 2015–16 season.
Giráldez helped Porriño in their promotion to the fourth division in 2018, and retired in the following year, aged 31. [6]
Managerial career
In 2015, while still a player, Giráldez was also named manager of Porriño Industrial's Juvenil squad. In the following year, he joined Celta's structure, and was a manager of their Cadete B, Cadete A and Juvenil B squads. [6]
On 27 June 2019, Giráldez was named in charge of Gran Peña, Celta's farm team, [7] and also remained manager of their Juvenil B team. On 10 August 2021, he was appointed manager of the Juvenil División de Honor squad. [8]
On 2 July 2022, Giráldez replaced Onésimo Sánchez at the helm of Celta's B-team; [9] the club officially announced his new role ten days later. [10] In his first season in charge of the B's, he led them to the play-offs, losing in the semi-finals to eventual winners Eldense.
On 12 March 2024, Giráldez was named manager of Celta's first team, replacing Rafael Benítez. [11] His first professional match in charge occurred five days later, as his side won 2–1 at Sevilla. [12]
