OVIEDO (SPAIN) (ITALPRESS) – Raul Gonzalez Blanco is making a fresh start in the Spanish second division. Real Oviedo has officially appointed the former striker as their new head coach, replacing Julian Calero—who was dismissed despite a recent victory in Cadiz. The 49-year-old has signed a contract running until June 2028, marking his first coaching role away from Madrid, having previously managed the club’s youth ranks and later Castilla, Real Madrid’s B team.

The objective is to lead Real Oviedo to La Liga; the side currently sits in eighth place with 21 points—level with Girona, the team against whom Raul will make his managerial debut this Saturday. Furthermore, the former Real Madrid star will be reunited in Oviedo with his son, Hector Gonzalez, who joined the club’s reserve team this past summer.
