Miguel Alejandro Company Chumpitazi (born 12 January 1945) is a Peruvian football coach, former player (1965–1973), and sports reporter.

Playing career

Company did not have a great track record during his playing days.[1] He did manage to play for notable teams such as Chiclayo based club Juan Aurich and José Gálvez FBC of Chimbote around the 1970s.[1]

Managerial career

In the early 1980s Company contributed to Peruvian magazine Ovación by interviewing football figures such as César Luis Menotti.[1] Then in 1985 he would start his managerial career with Asociación Deportiva Tarma in the 1985 Torneo Descentralizado season.[1] In his first two years as a manager he coached several clubs in a very short time such as Juventud La Joya, Colegio Nacional de Iquitos, Hungaritos Agustinos, and Unión Huaral.

Then in 1987 Company had his first experience in charge of a big Peruvian club, Sporting Cristal.[1] Lasting only one year and a half, he was in charge of the Celestes for the 1987 Torneo Descentralizado which extended into early 1980 and left before the start of the 1988 Torneo Descentralizado.[1] He did however manage to win his first trophy with Sporting Cristal in the 1988 Marlboro Cup tournament.

Company then went on to have a short spell with Alianza Lima in the 1989 Torneo Descentralizado. He helped the club to a strong start to the season but then later struggled in the second half.[1] Then he was in charge of Sport Boys for 1990 Torneo Descentralizado and led the club to a Copa Libertadores groupstage place by winning the Liguilla Final.[1] He left right after and came back for the 1991 season only to leave again a few months later.[1]

Company then managed the Peru national team in two Copa America tournaments (1991 and 1995).[1] In both editions of the Copa America, he could not lead Peru out of the first group stage. During the 1991 edition he had physical altercations with a journalist and later with his player, Andrés Gonzales, who refused to play against Paraguay.[1] Gonzales was later banned from playing for Peru for two years.[1]

He was also in charge of the Honduras national team in 1997 and 1998,[2] and the Cuba national team from 2000 to 2004. In terms of national clubs, he led the Peruvian team Universitario de Deportes to a Torneo Apertura cup in 1999.
