Juan José Díaz Galiana (born 8 January 1949), known as Juanjo Díaz or simply Juanjo, is a Spanish football manager.

Managerial career

Born in Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha, Juanjo started his managerial career with CF Montañesa before joining RCD Espanyol's youth categories in 1980. After a brief spell at CD Menorca he returned to the club, being appointed at farm team CE L'Hospitalet in 1988.

In January 1990, Juanjo was appointed manager of the first team in Segunda División, replacing Benito Joanet. He was able to achieve promotion to La Liga, but left the club. After another spells at CFJ Mollerussa and Palamós CF he returned to the Pericos, seriously threatened with relegation.

After failing to maintain the club's division status through the play-offs, Juanjo was sacked. He continued to manage in Segunda División B and Tercera División in the following years, being in charge of Real Valladolid B, SD Huesca, Andorra CF, Águilas CF and FC Cartagena.

In June 2001 Juanjo was named at the helm of CD Badajoz in the second tier. In October, however, he was relieved from his duties after winning only two points out of 27.[1]
