Player career

society

At club level, he played for Nacional Montevideo alongside Héctor Castro . For the 1935/36 season, the Uruguayan moved to FC Barcelona and won the Catalan championship there twice . Fernández 'league debut for Barcelona was in the 1-0 win against Espanyol Barcelona on November 10, 1935. In total, he scored eight goals in 17 games that season. His playing career at FC Barcelona came to an abrupt end when the civil war broke out in Spain . He was in his native Uruguay at the time when the club advised him to stay there. Fernández ultimately played another season for his home club Nacional Montevideo.

National team

Fernández made his debut on January 21, 1933 in the Uruguayan national team . Including his last appearance on January 27, 1935, he completed eight international matches and scored one goal. He was a member of the winning squad at the 1935 South American Championship . Between 1935 and 1936 Fernández played three games for the Catalan football team .

Coaching career

After he had to end his playing career at the age of 25 due to a serious knee injury, Fernández was coach of Nacional Montevideo nine years later, in 1946. In 1947 he became the coach of FC Barcelona. With players like Juan Zambudio Velasco , César and Estanislao Basora , he was able to lead Barça to the Spanish championship in 1948 and 1949. In his third season with Barcelona he also won the Copa Latina . In the league, however, he was only fifth that year, which led to his being replaced by Ferdinand Daučík after this season .

In 1950 he went back to Nacional Montevideo and won his second Uruguayan championship there as a coach. In February 1953, Nacional won the final of the Uruguayan Championship of the 1952 season . In the same year he was named Real Madrid's new coach . Only Fernández and Radomir Antić have coached both clubs so far. Fernández won the Spanish championship with Real Madrid in the 1953/54 season, their first championship since 1933. In the 1954/55 season he was dismissed after ten games and replaced by José Villalonga Llorente .

From September 13, 1959 to November 15 that year, he coached the first division team of Betis Sevilla in ten league games. On July 15, 1961, he made his debut as coach of the Uruguayan national team as part of the World Cup qualification in a 1-1 draw against Bolivia selection. He was also responsible for the Uruguayan team in the second leg 15 days later.
