Marco Andrés Olea Hueche (born 24 March 1979) is a former Chilean footballer and current manager.
From April to July 2021, he coached Santiago Morning (women).[1] On second half 2022, he assumed as the manager of Cultural Maipú in the Tercera B, the fifth level of the Chilean football league system.[2]
From his maternal line, Olea is of Mapuche descent, since his last surname, Hueche (or Weche), means "young" in Mapudungun.[3]
As a footballer, he was nicknamed El Caballero del Gol (The Gentleman of the Goal) due to the fact that he used to put on a tie to celebrate his goals since he played for Universidad de Concepción.[4] He has stated that cooking is also his passion. So, he took part in the first season of the cooking TV show Master Chef Chile in 2014.[4]
