Francisco "Fran" Justo Rodríguez (born 24 August 1989) is a Spanish football manager and former player who played as a midfielder, who is currently in charge of Real Unión .

Career[edit]

Born in Ourense, Galicia, Justo represented hometown sides Pabellón Ourense CF, CD Velle and Ponte Ourense CF as a youth. He made his senior debut with the latter, but retired in 2013, aged just 23, to pursue a coaching career; he was already in charge of the club's youth setup.[1][2]

In June 2013, Justo was appointed manager of SD Nogueira de Ramuín in the Primeira Autonómica,[3] and achieved promotion to the Preferente Autonómica in the following year. In 2015, after suffering relegation, he left the club and returned to Ourense's youth sides.[4]

On 28 June 2016, Justo was named in charge of the first team of Ourense, also in the Preferente.[5] He achieved promotion to Tercera División in his first season, and renewed his contract on 22 May 2018.[6]

On 3 August 2020, after narrowly missing out promotion with Ourense in the previous campaign, Justo was appointed at the helm of CD Arenteiro also in the fourth division.[7] He achieved promotion to the new fourth tier named Segunda División RFEF in his first year, and renewed his contract on 5 June 2021.[8]

In the 2022–23 season, Justo led Arenteiro to the top of their group, aside from knocking out La Liga side UD Almería from the Copa del Rey.[9] On 23 November 2022, he moved straight to Segunda División after replacing Hernán Pérez in charge of CD Lugo.[10]

Justo's first professional match in charge occurred on 27 November 2022, as Lugo drew 1–1 against Levante UD.[11] The following 31 January, after six defeats in nine matches, he was sacked.[12]

On 19 June 2023, Justo took over Primera Federación side Real Unión.[13] He was dismissed on 26 December, after six winless matches,[14] but returned to the club the following 4 April, following the sacking of his predecessor, Iñigo Idiakez.[15]
