Ion "Jon" Erice Domínguez (born 3 November 1986)[2] is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a midfielder, and the manager of Club Recreativo Granada.
Erice was born in Pamplona, Navarre. A CA Osasuna youth graduate, he appeared in a total of nine first-team games in his first two seasons, the first coming on 1 April 2007 in a 0–0 La Liga home draw against Sevilla FC (90 minutes played).[3] He finished the following campaign on loan to Segunda División's Málaga CF,[4] contributing five matches to the Andalusia side's top-flight return.
In 2008–09 Erice was loaned again, now to SD Huesca, newly promoted to the second division.[5] He was released in January 2009, signing a one-and-a-half-year contract with Segunda División B club Cádiz CF[6] although a loan was initially projected,[7] making ten appearances for another promotion.
Erice was an undisputed starter throughout the 2009–10 season – 36 games, 2,696 minutes – but Cádiz were immediately relegated after finishing 19th.[8][9] After returning to the second tier with Real Oviedo in 2015, he terminated his contract after four years at the Estadio Carlos Tartiere, two of them as team captain;[10] one month before, he faced a supporter in one of the most populous streets in Oviedo.[11]
On 2 August 2017, Erice signed a two-year deal with fellow division two side Albacete Balompié.[12] The 32-year-old moved to the Major League Soccer's Vancouver Whitecaps FC on 22 January 2019,[13] parting by mutual consent one year later before the start of the new season[14] and immediately returning to his previous club on a six-month deal.[15]
After leaving Alba in 2020, Erice subsequently represented Hércules CF in the third tier[16] and UD Mutilvera in Segunda Federación.[17]
On 9 November 2022, Erice retired and immediately became manager of his last club Mutilvera.[18] He managed to avoid relegation with the club, and took over fellow fourth tier side CD Manchego Ciudad Real on 30 June 2023.[19]
On 23 December 2023, Erice replaced sacked Carlos Cura as manager of Primera Federación side CF Rayo Majadahonda.[20] He was himself dismissed the following 25 March, with the club in the last position of their group.[21]
On 28 June 2024, Erice was named in charge of Club Recreativo Granada, freshly relegated to the fourth tier.[22]
