Luis Miguel Fernández Toledo (born October 2, 1959 in Tarifa , Spain ) is a former French football player and current coach .
The player
The defensive midfielder played at AS Saint-Priest (near Lyon) in his youth and was signed by Paris Saint-Germain in 1978 ; Fernández stayed with this club until 1986, and it was here that he achieved his greatest successes: from 1982 to 1986 he won a title with club or national team every year. He then moved to Racing Club Paris for three years and ended his playing career at AS Cannes (1989-1993). In 1985 he was named French Footballer of the Year .
Between 1982 and 1992 Luis Fernández was set up in 60 international matches for the French national team ; he scored six goals. After the 1982 World Cup and until the 1986 World Cup , he was part of the legendary "magical square" of the Équipe tricolore , which coach Michel Hidalgo formed with Fernández, Michel Platini , Jean Tigana and Alain Giresse and which in 1984 brought them to the European Championship title . At the 1986 World Cup, Fernandez finished third with the French national team, and in the legendary quarter-finals against Brazil he sealed Brazil's 4-5 defeat on penalties with his penalty.
The trainer
Immediately after the end of his playing career, Luis Fernández moved to the coaching bench of his last club, AS Cannes (1993/94) - and was voted coach of the year in 1993 . He then coached Paris Saint-Germain, (1994–1996 and 2000–2003), where he won the 1996 European Cup final against Rapid Vienna , where he worked for Athletic Bilbao (1996–2000) and became more Spanish Runner-up. In the 2003/04 season Fernández moved again to Spain, where he looked after Espanyol Barcelona .
In June 2005 he first coached the team of Al-Rayyan Sports Club ( Qatar ), which he left again in November of the same year. Soon after, he took over the coaching position at Beitar Jerusalem ( Israel ). Fernández left Jerusalem at the end of the 2005/06 season.
In December 2006 he returned to the Spanish Primera División to work at Betis Sevilla . In June 2007 he was released there for failure. From January 2009 he coached the French second division team Stade Reims , which Fernández left six months later after he had been unable to prevent its relegation.
In March 2010 Fernández took over the position of national coach for Israel and worked there until the end of 2011.
