Adrián Hernández Abenza (born 30 August 1981) is a Spanish football manager, currently in charge of Yeclano Deportivo.
Born in Murcia, Hernández was never a footballer during his youths; he graduated in business administration and journalism, and also had a degree in business science with MBAs in marketing and pedagogy. [1] He began his managerial career with EDMF Churra in 2014, with the club in the Primera Autonómica de Murcia; [2] in his first years, he also shared his manager role with his work as a teacher. [1]
Hernández achieved two consecutive promotions with Churra in his first two seasons, taking the club to Tercera División for the first time ever. On 3 June 2019, after missing out promotion in the last two consecutive play-offs, he was appointed manager of Real Murcia CF in Segunda División B. [3]
Hernández won the 2019 Copa Federación de España with the Pimentoneros, and renewed his contract for a further campaign on 5 May 2020. [4] The following 15 February, however, he was sacked after a poor run of results. [5]
On 8 June 2021, Hernández replaced Alejandro Sandroni at the helm of Tercera División RFEF side Yeclano Deportivo. [6] On 18 May of the following year, after achieving promotion as champions of their group, he agreed to a one-year contract extension. [7]
On 17 June 2023, after narrowly missing out a play-off spot in the season, Hernández renewed his link for a further year. [8]
