Paco Jémez will be in charge of ensuring the success of UD Ibiza‘s first stage in the Second Division. According to club sources, the signing of the 51-year-old coach from Cordoba is being completed today, after several days of negotiations following the dismissal of Juan Carlos Carcedo last Saturday.
Since then, the club has had a variety of managers, but the former coach of Rayo Vallecano has been appointed to try to boost the effectiveness and performance of a team that finished the first round in sixteenth place with 25 points, five above relegation and six of the play-off.
Paco Jémez is a familiar sight in the national football ditches. His strong character on and off the field, his charm, and his effusive, often scorching press conferences made him famous, to the point where he has recently developed a sideline as a sports analyst on Onda Cero, Cadena Cope, GOL, and Movistar LaLiga. He didn’t have a team just now.
