Club career

Born in Benasque, Province of Huesca, Güerri only played for two clubs in his 14-year senior career, starting out at Real Zaragoza in his native Aragon. [2] He made his La Liga debut on 11 February 1979 as a late substitute in a 1–3 home loss against Sporting de Gijón, [3] and scored his first goal on 30 September that year to help the hosts to defeat Real Betis 5–1. [4]

Güerri appeared in 345 competitive games during his spell at the La Romareda. [5] He contributed 12 matches as his team won the 1985–86 edition of the Copa del Rey, including the 1–0 win over FC Barcelona in the final. [6] [2]

Güerri retired in summer 1991 at age 32, after three Segunda División seasons with UD Las Palmas; he had left Zaragoza after clashing with both the board of directors and new manager Radomir Antić. [7] [2]

International career

Güerri was part of Spain's squad in the 1980 Summer Olympics. [8] [9] [10] He appeared in the 1–1 group-stage draw with East Germany, in an eventual exit at the end of that phase. [2]

On 5 October 1983, Güerri won his first cap for the full side, starting the 1–1 friendly draw against France in Paris. [11] He appeared in a further two internationals. [2]
