Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Family name hatnote Template:Infobox football biography Fernando Ruiz Hierro (Script error: No such module "IPA".; born 23 March 1968) is a Spanish football executive and former player who played as a centre-back, sweeper or defensive midfielder.

He won five La Liga and three Champions League trophies with Real Madrid in 14 years after signing from Valladolid, during which he appeared in 601 official matches.[1] He also competed professionally in Qatar and England.

Hierro represented Spain on 89 occasions, appearing in four World Cups and two European Championships. He started working as a manager in 2016 with Oviedo, being appointed at the helm of the national team two years later.

Club career

Early years and Real Madrid

Hierro was born in Vélez-Málaga, Province of Málaga. After beginning his football career at local club Vélez, he had a very brief youth spell with neighbouring CD Málaga, where he was told he was not good enough for the sport, which prompted a return home.[2] He eventually made his La Liga debut with Real Valladolid, being bought by Real Madrid in the summer of 1989 after two solid seasons; youth graduate José Luis Caminero moved in the opposite direction as part of the deal.[3]

At Real, Hierro scored seven goals in 37 games in his first season, and eventually had his position on the field advanced by coach Radomir Antić, continuing his good performances with the addition of goals – he totalled an astonishing 44 league goals in three seasons, 21 alone in 1991–92, a career-best.[4][5] For years, he often partnered Manolo Sanchís in the centre of defence, being instrumental in the conquest of five leagues and three UEFA Champions League trophies[6][7][8] and being named captain after the latter's retirement.[9]

On 24 March 2002, Hierro scored a hat-trick in a 3–1 home win against Real Zaragoza,[10] although the ultimate champions would be Valencia. He was released at the end of the 2002–03 season alongside manager Vicente del Bosque,[11] under rather unceremonious circumstances; having appeared in 497 top-division matches over the course of 16 seasons (105 goals), he then chose a lucrative move to the wealthy but developing Middle East football industry, joining Qatar's Al-Rayyan.[12]

Bolton Wanderers

After just one year, Hierro returned to Europe to sign with Premier League side Bolton Wanderers[13] on the advice of his English teammate at Real Madrid Steve McManaman, and teaming up with another former player of that club, Iván Campo. He scored once during his tenure, which came in a 3–2 loss at Norwich City in December 2004[14] and, even though hard-pressed by fans and manager Sam Allardyce to stay for a further campaign,[15] he announced his retirement from professional football on 10 May 2005.[16]

International career

Hierro was capped 89 times for Spain and scored 29 goals, being only surpassed by Raúl (who also took over his captain armband in June 2002 when he retired), Álvaro Morata, David Silva, Fernando Torres and David Villa. He made his debut on 20 September 1989 – freshly signed by Madrid – in a 1–0 friendly victory over Poland in A Coruña,[17] and appeared for the nation in the 1990 (although only as a squad member), 1994, 1998 and 2002 FIFA World Cups, as well as UEFA Euro 1996 (where he missed a penalty as Spain crashed out to hosts England in a shootout) and 2000.[18]

One of Hierro's most important goals came during the 1994 World Cup qualification, as he headed the winner against Denmark that allowed ten-men Spain to qualify for the final tournament in the United States.[19] In the finals, he scored after an individual effort against Switzerland in the round of 16,[20] before his team was eliminated by Italy in the quarter-finals following a 2–1 loss.[21]

Coaching and executive career

Although he had already been in charge for a few weeks, Hierro was officially presented as sporting director of the Royal Spanish Football Federation in late September 2007.[22] He remained four years in the position.[23]

Hierro returned to his native region in July 2011, being appointed Málaga CF's director of football.[24][25] On 28 May 2012, even though the club finished fourth and qualified for the Champions League for the first time ever, he left his position.[26]

Hierro at the 2018 World Cup

On 10 July 2014, Hierro was named assistant coach of Real Madrid, replacing Zinedine Zidane – who left to take the reins of Real Madrid Castilla – in Carlo Ancelotti's staff.[27] He was given his first full managerial role two years later, being appointed at Segunda División side Real Oviedo for the upcoming season with the option of a further year;[28] on 14 June 2017, after missing out on the promotion playoffs on the final matchday, he left the Estadio Carlos Tartiere by mutual consent.[29]

Hierro returned to the Spanish Federation as sporting director on 27 November 2017.[30] He was appointed as the manager of Spain on 13 June 2018[31] after the sacking of Julen Lopetegui two days before their first match at the World Cup, following the latter's decision to join Real Madrid after the tournament.[32] Two days later, he led the team to a 3–3 group stage draw against Portugal;[33] on 8 July, following a penalty shootout loss to hosts Russia in the round of 16, he stepped down from his post and also announced that he would not return to his role as sporting director.[34]

On 21 October 2022, Hierro was announced as sporting director of Guadalajara in the Mexican Liga MX.[35] In June 2024, he joined Saudi Pro League's Al-Nassr in the same capacity.[36]

Style of play

Equally at ease as a central defender, sweeper or defensive midfielder, Hierro had the ability, at his peak, to combine solid defensive play with a near-unlimited passing range and surprising goalscoring talent,[37] which made him one of the world's most sought-after players.[2] A large, physically imposing and intimidating defensive presence, he was also known for his positional sense, strength in the air, tenacity and the ability to time his challenges well.[38][39]

Regarded as a highly competitive and hard-tackling defender, The Times placed Hierro at number 43 in their list of the 50 hardest footballers in history in 2007.[40]

Personal life

Hierro's older brothers, Antonio and Manuel, were also professional footballers and defenders. The latter paired up with Fernando at Valladolid, as the club finished eighth in 1987–88.[41][42]

In 2021, Hierro began dating Croatian television journalist Fani Stipković, having divorced his wife of 28 years Sonia Ruiz.[43] They married in September 2023 in Mexico[44] and, the following month, welcomed their first child, Nicolás Valentín.[45]
