Alfredo "Fredi" Álvarez Paredes (born 27 February 1976) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a midfielder, and is the manager of RC Celta Fortuna.

Playing career[edit]

Born in Moaña, Pontevedra, Galicia, Álvarez played youth football for Pontevedra CF, and made his senior debut with the reserves in the regional leagues. In 1998, he moved to Tercera División side Alondras CF, being a regular starter during his first spell at the club.

In 2001, after scoring a career-best 12 goals for Ponte Ourense CF, Álvarez returned to Alondras. He was an undisputed starter for the side in the following four seasons, suffering relegation in 2003 and achieving immediate promotion back to the fourth tier before retiring in 2005, aged 29.

Managerial career[edit]

Immediately after retiring, Álvarez started working at his last club Alondras as an assistant of Juan Carlos Andrés. In 2009, he was named manager of the club, after Andrés left for Rápido de Bouzas.[1]

Álvarez left Alondras in June 2012, after taking the club to their best-ever campaign in the fourth tier and missing out promotion in the play-offs. On 25 October 2012, he was named manager of SD Compostela also in the fourth division.[2]

Álvarez led Compos to a promotion to Segunda División B in his first year, but left the club for fellow third tier side Celta de Vigo B on 20 June 2014.[3] He was sacked from the latter on 13 November, after 12 matches.[4]

On 14 January 2016, Álvarez returned to Compostela,[5] but left the side in May, after suffering relegation. On 23 June 2016, he was appointed at the helm of CD Boiro also in the third tier.[6]

On 27 March 2017, Boiro announced that Álvarez had left the club on a mutual agreement, only to confirm his continuity ahead of the club just hours later;[7] he ultimately left in May, after their administrative relegation. He spent more than six months without a club before taking over fellow league team CD Izarra on 17 January 2018.[8]

In August 2021, after more than three years unemployed, Álvarez returned to Celta and was appointed their Juvenil B manager.[9] On 5 July 2023, after one season at the helm of the Juvenil A squad, he took over the C-team.[10]

On 12 March 2024, Álvarez was appointed manager of Celta's reserves, after Claudio Giráldez was named first team manager.[11]
