Voro (footballer)

Salvador González Marco (born 9 October 1963), known as Voro, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a central defender, and the current manager of Valencia CF.
During his career he played mostly for Valencia and Deportivo (ten La Liga seasons combined, 290 matches), also coaching the former club on several occasions.
Voro represented Spain at the 1994 World Cup.

Born in Valencia, Voro graduated from hometown Valencia CF's youth academy, going on to represent its B-side in his first two years as a senior. After a one-and-a-half-year loan with CD Tenerife in the second division, he played during eight seasons – seven in La Liga – with the Che's first team, which included 37 games with two goals in 1989–90 as they finished second.

Subsequently, Voro joined Deportivo de La Coruña, being an instrumental part in the rise of Super Depor during the early to mid-1990s. Having started the 1996–97 campaign with the Galicians he finished it with CD Logroñés, retiring in the second level in 1999. On 21 April 2008, after several years working with Valencia as match delegate, Voro became manager of his former club following the sacking of Ronald Koeman. After saving the club from relegation with four wins in five mathces, he was replaced by Unai Emery for 2008–09 and reinstated in his previous post.

On 30 November 2015, Voro was appointed interim manager of Valencia following the departure of Nuno Espírito Santo, before the position was filled by Gary Neville two days later. He led the side to a 1–1 draw against FC Barcelona at the Mestalla Stadium in his only game in charge.

On 20 September 2016, Voro took the interim post for a fourth time after the dismissal of Pako Ayestarán. The same befell him on the penultimate day of the year, following Cesare Prandelli's resignation.

On 10 January 2017, Voro was confirmed as manager until the end of the season.

Voro earned nine caps for the Spain national team during two years, and was part of the squad in the 1994 FIFA World Cup. His debut came on 13 October 1993, in a decisive 1994 World Cup qualifier against the Republic of Ireland in Lansdowne Road, Dublin (90 minutes played, 3–1 win).
