Template:Spanish name 2 Urbano Ortega Cuadros (born 22 December 1961), simply known as Urbano, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a midfielder.

Over the course of 16 La Liga seasons (17 during his career) he amassed totals of 301 games and 16 goals, namely for Espanyol and Barcelona.

Club career

Urbano was born in Beas de Segura, Jaén. After starting out professionally with RCD Español he moved in 1982 to Catalonia neighbours FC Barcelona; with the latter he only started in two of his nine seasons, being sparingly used as a backup (only 41 La Liga matches combined in the remaining years).

Subsequently, Urbano returned to (now called) Espanyol for two more seasons, with top flight relegation in the latter. He closed out his career in 1996 after playing with modest UE Lleida (one year) and CP Mérida (two), with two additional campaigns in the main division, one with each team.

Urbano began coaching in 2003, assisting former Barça teammate Esteban Vigo at numerous clubs, including Romania's FC Dinamo Bucureşti. His first head coach experience arrived in 2007–08 in Segunda División B, with CD Baza: he resigned as the side dropped down a level.

After working as a scout for Barcelona and Villarreal CF, Urbano returned to another former side, Espanyol, in July 2009, as a club delegate.

International career

Urbano never gained a senior cap for Spain, but was a regular for its U21s, also competing at the 1980 Summer Olympics.
