Robert Moreno González (born 19 September 1977) is a Spanish football manager who is in charge of the Russian First League club Sochi.
He worked in youth and amateur football before becoming assistant to Luis Enrique at various clubs and the Spain national team. In 2019, Moreno succeeded his mentor as manager of the national team and qualified for UEFA Euro 2020 before Luis Enrique returned to his post. He later managed Monaco in Ligue 1, and Granada in La Liga.
Coaching career
= Early career
=Born in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona, Catalonia, Moreno played as a central defender for his hometown side, La Florida CF. He started developing interest for coaching at the age of just 14, when his physical education teacher asked him to help in classes. At the age of 16, he started managing La Florida's Alevín squad, along with Antonio Camacho.
Moreno started his professional coaching career in 2003, after being the youngest to receive the title of manager in the country, when he took charge of Penya Blaugrana Collblanc. From there he went to L'Hospitalet, Marianao Poblet, Castelldefels and Damm, managing their youth sides. In 2006, he also took over Castelldefels' first team, but was sacked in March of the following year.
After working as a scout for Barcelona during the 2010–11 season, Moreno worked as assistant manager under Luis Enrique at Roma (2011–2012), Celta (2013–2014) and Barcelona (2014–2017). For the 2017–18 season, he assisted Juan Carlos Unzué at Celta, prior to rejoining Luis Enrique for the Spain national team in July 2018.
= Spain national team
=On 26 March 2019, Moreno was in charge of the national team in a 2–0 win against Malta after Luis Enrique had to leave due to personal problems. He was also in charge during the following two matches, against the Faroe Islands and Sweden.
After three matches in charge of Spain on an interim basis, Moreno was appointed the team's head coach on 19 June 2019, after Luis Enrique's resignation due to his daughter's illness. He signed a contract until the end of UEFA Euro 2020. Only five months later, Moreno resigned and was replaced by his predecessor Luis Enrique despite an unbeaten record and qualifying for UEFA Euro 2020. Luis Enrique dismissed Moreno from his coaching staff and called him "disloyal" and "over ambitious" for wanting to manage Spain at Euro 2020.
= Monaco
=On 28 December 2019, Moreno was named as the new manager of Ligue 1 side Monaco, replacing Leonardo Jardim. A week later, he won his first match 2–1 at home to Reims in the last 64 of the Coupe de France. On 12 January, in his first league match, the team from the principality drew 3–3 at leaders Paris Saint-Germain.
Having finished the season in ninth place, and thus missing out on European qualification, Moreno was sacked on 18 July 2020.
= Granada
=On 18 June 2021, La Liga club Granada announced Moreno as the side's new head coach on a two-year contract. He drew 0–0 at Villarreal on his debut on 16 August.
On 6 March 2022, Moreno was sacked by the Andalusians, after six defeats in the last seven matches.
= Sochi
=On 15 December 2023, Moreno was hired by the Russian Premier League club Sochi. The club was at the bottom of the table at the time. Despite the results improving somewhat under Moreno's helm, Sochi was relegated on 18 May 2024.
On 27 May 2024, Sochi and Moreno extended their contract for three additional seasons.
