Ramon Tribulietx Santolaya (born 20 September 1972 in Barcelona, Spain) is a Spanish football coach and former football player who was most recently manager of ISPS Handa Premiership club Auckland City, leaving the club in June 2019.[1]

Tribulietx holds the world record for the most trophies in continental competitions, winning seven straight OFC Champions League titles with Auckland City between 2011 and 2017.[2][3]

Career[]

Playing career[]

Born in Barcelona, Tribulietx enjoyed an low-profile playing career in New Zealand, signing for would-be North Island Soccer League champions Central United in 1999. However, he stayed for only two months before breaking his arm in a reserve fixture and returning to Spain.[4]

He came briefly out of retirement while manager of Auckland City in 2014, playing several games for Northern League Division Two side Warkworth AFC in 2014 under current Wellington Phoenix goalkeeping coach Paul Gothard.[5]

Coaching career[]

Having gained a degree in physical education at the Institut Nacional d'Educació Física de Catalunya in 1998, Tribulietx's first foray into management came as the assistant coach of newly promoted Segunda División B side UE Sant Andreu. The next season, Tribulietx moved to UE Figueres at the same level and, after the club's dissolution, moved to UE Castelldefels.[citation needed]

Tribulietx became the assistant manager at Auckland City under Paul Posa in 2008. In 2010, he was named as co-manager of Auckland City along with Aaron McFarland; Tribulietx took full control of the club following the 2010-11 season, and has remained at the club since, topping the league in six out of his eight seasons and winning the playoff series three times.

Tribulietx won seven consecutive OFC Champions League titles between 2011 and 2017, the highest consecutive streak of any manager for any continental or international competition.[6] As a result, Auckland City has qualified for seven consecutive Club World Cup competitions. Tribulietx guided the Navy Blues to a historic third-placed finish in the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup, falling to Copa Libertadores champions San Lorenzo in extra time in the semi-final before defeating Cruz Azul in a penalty shootout in the third-placed playoff.[7]

In addition to his management duties at Auckland City, Tribulietx has also enjoyed external coaching roles, acting as technical advisor for the Canada women's national football team at the 2012 Summer Olympics (winning an eventual bronze medal), and for the Solomon Islands national football team during the 2016 OFC Nations Cup.[8][9]
