Carlos Vicens (born 12 February 1983) is a Spanish football manager and former player who is an assistant coach at Manchester City.

Career

An amateur player who retired early to focus on management, Vicens took his first steps as a coach in his native island of Mallorca for minor clubs such as Ses Salines and Santanyí; he was then assistant to Nico López at Llosetense. [4]

In July 2017, he moved to England to join Manchester City as a youth coach, having sent his CV to the club the previous year. He worked as an assistant to the Under-12 and Under-13 teams in his first season, and was promoted as an assistant to the Under-18 team the following year. [5]

In August 2020, he was promoted to Under-18 main coach, replacing his previous boss Gareth Taylor. [6] On his first season in charge, he guided Manchester City Under-18s to win the FA Youth Cup. [7]

In July 2021, Vicens was again promoted, becoming Josep Guardiola's assistant in charge of the first team at Manchester City. [4]

On 6 May 2022, Eredivisie team Heracles announced that Vicens would take charge of its first team from 1 July 2022, after having signed a two-year contract. [8] However, in June, a few days after Heracles were relegated for the first time in 17 years, [9] Vicens mutually parted ways with the Dutch club, choosing to stay on at Manchester City instead.
