Juan Carlos Ríos Vidal (born 17 November 1964) is a Spanish football manager and former player.
Born in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Cádiz, Andalusia, Ríos began his managerial career at Atlético Sanluqueño CF's youth setup, club which he represented as a player.[1] In the 2003 summer, after managing Sanluqueño's main squad and Real Balompédica Linense, he was appointed CD Alcalá manager, winning promotion to Segunda División B in his first campaign.
In April 2008 Ríos returned to Alcalá, after a stint at Linense. On 6 June 2008, he was appointed at the helm of Tercera División's UD Almería B,[2] taking the club to the third level for the first time ever.
On 23 June 2009, Ríos was named manager of another reserve team, Recreativo de Huelva B also in the fourth division.[3] In October 2010 he was appointed at the helm of the main squad in Segunda División, replacing fired Pablo Alfaro.[4]
On 19 May 2011, Ríos signed a new deal with Recre, after avoiding relegation during the campaign.[5] On 22 June, however, he resigned,[6] and joined fellow league team FC Cartagena in December;[7] he left the latter in July 2012, after suffering relegation.[8]
On 20 February 2013, Ríos was appointed Xerez CD manager.[9] He was relieved from his duties in June, with the club being relegated as dead last,[10] and moved to Atlético Sanluqueño;[11] he was sacked by the latter in January 2014.[12]
