Óscar Pedro Cano Moreno (born 6 November 1972) is a Spanish football manager, currently in charge of Zamora CF.

Manager career

[edit]

Born in Granada, Andalusia, Cano began his managerial career at lowly Imperio Albolote and subsequently managed neighbours Arenas Armilla in the Tercera División, before moving to Segunda División B side Baza in the 2006 summer.[1] After taking the club to a historical 12th position, he was appointed at the helm of Granada, also in the third level.[2]

In October 2008, Cano left the club and was appointed Poli Ejido manager in January 2010.[3] On 1 July 2010 he was appointed at Segunda División's Salamanca, replacing resigned Jorge D'Alessandro.[4]

Cano was sacked by the Charros on 14 February 2011, after suffering ten consecutive defeats.[5] On 26 July, he joined Melilla,[6] leaving the club in June 2012.[7]

On 10 December 2012, Cano was appointed at the helm of Real Betis B, replacing fired Puma.[8] After achieving promotion back to the third level at the end of the 2013–14 campaign, he signed for Alcoyano;[9] he was sacked on 16 February 2015, after only winning three points out of 18.[10]

On 14 July 2015, Cano was named Elche B manager,[11] but resigned on 3 August due to the club's poor in and out field situation.[12]

Cano was hired by third-tier club Castellón on 10 December 2018, after the dismissal of David Gutiérrez.[13] In his first full season with the Valencians, they won their group before defeating Cornellà in a single-leg playoff final at La Rosaleda Stadium to return to the second division for the first time in a decade.[14]

On 11 January 2021, Cano left the Orelluts on a mutual agreement.[15] He took over Primera División RFEF side Badajoz on 1 July,[16] but was sacked on 8 February 2022.[17]

Cano subsequently worked at third division sides Deportivo de La Coruña[18] and Sabadell,[19] being sacked from the former due to a poor away form, and leaving the latter after failing to avoid relegation in the 2023–24 season.[20] On 3 June 2024, he returned to the second division after being named in charge of Tenerife,[21] but was sacked after five winless matches.[22]

In January 2025, Cano was named assistant manager of Raúl Caneda in the Chinese Super League club Zhejiang FC.[23] On 4 November, he was appointed manager of Zamora CF in his country's third tier.[24]
