Tiago Manuel Matos Fernandes (born 17 August 1981) is a Portuguese football manager and former player who played as a midfielder.
After a lower-league playing career, he began coaching in 2009, leading Sporting CP (interim) and Chaves in the Primeira Liga and Estoril and Leixões in the second tier.
Born in Montijo, Fernandes represented C.D. Montijo, F.C. Barreirense and A.D. Samouquense as a youth. He made his senior debut with G.D. Alcochetense in the 2000–01 season, in Terceira Divisão.

Pinhalnovense, Clube Olímpico do Montijo (two spells) and Juventude F.C. Sarilhense, where he retired in 2015 at the age of 34. [1]
In 2008, Fernandes started working as a scout at U.D. Leiria. He then worked as an assistant of his father at Vitória de Setúbal before joining Sporting CP's youth setup in 2011, initially as an assistant of the under-15s. [1]
