Eder Sarabia Armesto (born 27 September 1980) is a Spanish football manager and former player who played as a forward. He is the current manager of FC Andorra.[1]

Playing career[]

Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Basque Country, Sarabia only played amateur football during his entire career; he played for SD Indautxu,[2] SD Leioa, SD San Pedro[3] and Arenas Club de Getxo's reserve team[4][5] before retiring at the age of 24.[6] He never played higher than the Tercera División.

Coaching career[]

Sarabia began his coaching career in 2003 with CFD Cruces' Infantil squad, and then worked at Danok Bat CF's youth categories.[7]

In 2011, Sarabia moved to Villarreal CF, after being appointed manager of the Infantil side.[8] After being in charge of the Juvenil squad in the 2012–13 campaign,[9] he was named manager of the C-team on 1 October 2013, replacing Tito García Sanjuán.[10][11]

Sarabia was sacked by the Yellow Submarine on 12 November 2013, after only one win in seven matches.[12] In the following year, he led a Real Madrid academy project in the Dominican Republic.[13]

In October 2015, Sarabia joined Quique Setién's staff after being named his assistant at UD Las Palmas.[14] He followed Setién to Real Betis and FC Barcelona, again as his assistant.[15][16]

While at Barcelona, Sarabia was pointed out by the media as the main reason of a relationship problem between the players and the coaching staff,[17] being spotted often by the match cameras criticizing the players in matches;[18][19] Lionel Messi ignored him during a match against RC Celta de Vigo.[20] He later admitted an argument between the squad and the staff after that match.[21]

On 18 January 2021, Sarabia was appointed manager of FC Andorra in Segunda División B, after agreeing to a two-and-a-half-year contract.[22][23]

Personal life[]

Sarabia's father Manuel was also a footballer and a forward who played for Athletic Bilbao and CD Logroñés.[24]
