My Take

Jorge Otero appeals to me precisely because he was never the marquee name. Over twelve La Liga seasons he played 317 games as a full-back comfortable on either flank, mostly for Celta, the club of his native Galicia. That blend of versatility and loyalty to home is exactly the kind of unglamorous backbone every great team needs. His selection for Spain at the 1994 World Cup and Euro 1996 confirms the quality was there all along. Now a manager, he is passing it on, and I find a quiet dignity in a defender's defender who built his career on reliability rather than flash.

Overview
