Joan Francesc Ferrer Sicilia (born 1 January 1970), commonly known as Rubi , is a Spanish former footballer who played as a winger , currently manager of UD Almería .
After a playing career spent no higher than Segunda División B , he embarked on a managerial career of over two decades, leading Levante , Sporting de Gijón , Espanyol , Betis and Almería in La Liga .
Playing career
[ edit ]
Born in Vilassar de Mar , Barcelona , Catalonia , Rubi never competed in higher than Segunda División B during a ten-year senior career. He started out at local club UE Vilassar de Mar , in 1989.[2]
Rubi appeared in the promotion playoffs to Segunda División with both AEC Manlleu and Terrassa FC , falling short on both occasions. Whilst with the former, he scored in a 3–3 away draw against Extremadura CF on 29 May 1994,[3] but the team eventually finished in second position in their group .
Coaching career
[ edit ]
Rubi began working as a coach with Vilassar de Mar, and subsequently was in charge of several Tercera División sides in his native region. With CE L'Hospitalet , he lost the 2004 promotion play-off final on penalties to Atlético Levante UD .[4] His first experience in the third division was at CE Sabadell FC , being dismissed on 2 March 2005 while two points inside the relegation zone;[5] he was promoted to that level with RCD Espanyol B , a year later .
After a short stint with UD Ibiza-Eivissa , Rubi was appointed at Benidorm CF .[6] He left the club in the end of the campaign , after achieving a sixth-place finish in the third tier.
On 8 June 2012, Rubi signed with Girona FC after having been part of the staff in previous years.[7] He took the team to the best season of their history, leading them to the fourth position in division two and being eventually knocked out in the play-offs .[8]
Rubi left Girona and joined FC Barcelona on 28 June 2013, being added to Tito Vilanova 's staff.[9] On 3 June of the following year, he replaced dismissed Juan Ignacio Martínez at the helm of Real Valladolid .[10]
After failing to win promotion to La Liga in 2015 Segunda División play-offs Rubi was replaced by Gaizka Garitano on 6 July 2015.[11] On 28 October, he was appointed manager of Levante UD , taking over from the sacked Lucas Alcaraz .[12] On his debut three days later, the team lost 3–0 at city rivals Valencia CF .[13] He only managed to collect seven wins until the end of the season , the side returned to the second tier after a six-year stay and he was relieved of his duties on 26 May 2016.[14]
Rubi took over at Sporting de Gijón on 18 January 2017, in the place of Abelardo .[15] In June, following their relegation , he was hired at SD Huesca .[16]
On 25 May 2018, after leading the Aragonese side to their first-ever promotion to the first division, Rubi announced he would leave at the end of the campaign.[17] He returned to Espanyol on 3 June, being appointed manager of the first team also in the top flight.[18]
On 6 June 2019, Rubi left Espanyol after paying his release clause,[19] and was appointed Real Betis manager just hours later.[20] He was dismissed on 21 June of the following year, with the club eight points above the relegation zone with as many games left to play.[21]
Rubi signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with UD Almería on 28 April 2021, replacing José Gomes even though the team was placed third with six matches to go .[22] He won the league in his first full season , thus returning to the top tier after seven years.[23]
Almería survived on the final day of the 2022–23 campaign with a 3–3 draw at already relegated Espanyol, putting another of Rubi's former sides, Valladolid, into the second division at their expense.[24] He subsequently left at the end of his contract.[25]
On 3 June 2024, Rubi returned to the Power Horse Stadium on a three-year deal, following relegation the previous season .[26]
