Luis Miguel Carrión Delgado (born 7 February 1979) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a right-back, currently a manager.
Playing career
Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Carrión began his senior career in the C and B teams of Barcelona. He made 24 total Segunda División appearances for the latter and Gimnàstic de Tarragona, and played 262 matches in the Segunda División B for those clubs and five others.
Coaching career
In June 2011, Carrión was appointed manager of the women's team of Espanyol in his hometown. He left two years later, having won the Copa de la Reina de Fútbol in 2012. Carrión then returned to the men's game and became assistant to Pablo Villa at Córdoba in the second tier. In February 2014, he was made interim when the latter was dismissed, and on the 16th he was on the bench as the side lost 3–0 at Numancia. In March 2015, Carrión was named coach of Córdoba's reserves in division three. Having suffered relegation to Tercera División and bounced back with promotion, he was then given the job at the first team on 29 November 2016, replacing José Luis Oltra at a side 16th in the standings. The following 16 October, he was himself relieved of his duties. In June 2018, Carrión was hired at third-tier Melilla, whom he had played for a decade earlier. He took the team from the North African exclave to the playoffs, where they were eliminated by a single goal from Atlético Baleares in the semi-finals. Carrión moved up a league in the summer of 2019, agreeing to a deal at Numancia. He left the club after their relegation in July 2020, and was appointed at fellow second division side Cartagena on 12 January 2021. On 1 June 2023, after two consecutive ninth-place finishes, Carrión left the Estadio Cartagonova after rejecting a contract renewal. On 21 September, he replaced Álvaro Cervera at the helm of Real Oviedo also in the second tier, and led them to the final of the promotion play-offs, losing 2–1 on aggregate to his former employers Espanyol. On 26 June 2024, Carrión left Asturias, and signed a two-year contract with Las Palmas of La Liga later that day. On 8 October, after nine matches without a win – the last being a 1–0 home loss against Celta in spite of playing 40 minutes with two more players – and with his team bottom of the table, he was dismissed.
