Antonio Calderón

Born in Cádiz, Andalusia, Calderón made his senior and La Liga debut with hometown's Cádiz CF, in the 1986–87 season. In 1989, he signed with RCD Mallorca also in the top division, spending two years there. Calderón then joined Madrid's Rayo Vallecano, helping the team promote from the Segunda División in his debut campaign with a career-best nine goals in 36 games; during his spell with the club, he would experience one relegation and another promotion. He finished his career in Spain with UE Lleida of the second division, eventually amassing totals of 416 matches and 49 goals across the two major tiers of Spanish football. Aged 33, Calderón moved abroad, playing half a season with Airdrieonians and one and a half with Kilmarnock, his debut for the latter being a start against Dunfermline Athletic (2–1 home win) and his first and only goal occurring in a 3–1 away loss to Rangers. In 2002 he stayed in Scotland, retiring at Raith Rovers where he acted as player-coach.

Calderón continued his coaching career in his country, first briefly managing first professional club Cádiz as it was not finally able to prevent division-two relegation. He then signed with SD Huesca, recently promoted to precisely that league. With him in charge for the full campaign, they finished in a comfortable 11th position. In 2009–10, Calderón repeated the feat; 13th place, although only two points clear of the relegation zone. In July 2010 he moved to another side in the second tier, Albacete Balompié. In February of the following year, with the Castilla–La Mancha team ranking 19th out of 22, eventually suffering relegation, he was fired. In July 2011, Calderón signed for CD Tenerife in the third division. On 22 January of the following year, following a 2–3 home defeat against Sporting de Gijón B, he was relieved of his duties, as the Canarians were ultimately not promoted. For 2012–13, Calderón returned to Huesca which was still in the second tier. He was sacked after a 4–0 loss at UD Las Palmas in December, and the club eventually dropped down to the third division after a five-year stay. Calderón succeeded Raül Agné at third-tier Cádiz CF in March 2014. After taking them to the playoffs (eliminated by CE L'Hospitalet) his contract was renewed for another year in June. However, he was dismissed as soon as November for a poor run of results. In October 2016, Calderón was appointed at CF Fuenlabrada of the third league after Josip Višnjić was fired. He again took…
