Braulio Jesús Vázquez Benítez (born 14 March 1972), simply known as Braulio, is a Spanish football manager and former player who played as a forward. He is the current sporting director of CA Osasuna.
As a player, Braulio's career consisted mostly of Segunda División B appearances. His professional inputs included two La Liga matches for Deportivo de La Coruña, aside from a two-season spell with Portuguese Primeira Liga side S.C. Farense and one year with CP Mérida in Segunda División.
After retiring, Braulio worked as a manager for Soneira SD and Laracha CF[1] before joining Valencia CF as a technical secretary.[2] He subsequently moved to the sporting director position at the latter club in 2010, later working under the same role at Real Valladolid[3] and CA Osasuna.[4]
Braulio's son Jesús is also a footballer. A left back, he was a Valencia youth graduate.[5]
