Navarro coach Iñigo Pérez announced at a press conference this Friday that he will leave the Rayo Vallecano bench, where he has ledthe Madrid team for more than twoseasons  , during which time he has achieved permanence, qualifying for the European competition and the first European final in the history of the club.

Thus, the 38-year-old coach has put an end to a stage that began on February 14, 2024, when he arrived to replace Francisco Rodríguez, a difficult situation the team was in at the time, with only one win in the last 14 games, although Pérez managed to keep the team in Primera with five pointsof advantage over the downhill posts.

In the 2024-2025 season, he managed not only to maintain the category, but also to qualify for the Rayo Vallecano Conference League. Hori was the club's first European ranking through the league since the 2000-2001 season, which meant the renewal of the contract for another year.

In the season that has just ended, he easily secured salvation and kept theteam with European options until the last day, and also took the red-white team to the first continental final of their history , the Conference League, despite last Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to the English Crystal Palace.

In total, Iñigo Pérez has led 112 matches as coach of the Rayo Vallecano. Bere has managed to staythree times in office, qualify for the Conference Leagueand be runner-up in Europe. In addition, with the 52 points achieved last season, he was only one point away from matching the best record in the history of the club in First Division.
