Óscar Sánchez will take charge of Valencia at Mendizorroza tomorrow after the sacking of Carlos Corberán. According to AS, it crowns a six-month rise from Juvenil A to the senior side.

In March he replaced Miguel Ángel Angulo at Valencia Mestalla, secured survival and transformed a side that finished with strong numbers.

Across six games with the reserves he recorded four wins and the team scored 18 goals.

He joined Valencia in 2024 to lead Juvenil A and reached the Copa de Campeones Juvenil final in his first season, losing to Betis.

Sánchez, born in Murcia in 1979, spent most of his playing career at Valladolid in the top division, with spells at Jaén, Badajoz, Atlético de Madrid B and Murcia, where he retired before moving into coaching.

He knows the youth cohort well, with many regularly training with the seniors, and players such as Otorbi and Iker Córdoba have already had first-team chances this season.

In principle, he will only lead the side at Mendizorroza, with Braulio Vázquez already seeking a proven head coach to take charge, and Sánchez to return to Valencia Mestalla.
