José Manuel Jiménez Ortiz (born 21 December 1981), known as Mané, is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a left-back.

Over eight seasons, he amassed La Liga totals of 183 matches and five goals in representation of Almería (four years, two spells) and Getafe (four years). He also spent a few months in the Israeli Premier League late into his 18-year senior career, with Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Playing career

[edit]

Born in Tarifa, Province of Cádiz, Mané started playing professional football with lowly Real Balompédica Linense and CD Díter Zafra, being limited to just eight Segunda División B games with the latter team. In 2003, he moved to Atlético Madrid B of the same level.[1]

For 2005–06, Mané progressed to the Segunda División, joining Ciudad de Murcia and scoring two league goals during his spell at the Estadio de La Condomina.[2][3] The following season he moved clubs again, this time to UD Almería; he quickly became first-choice, being instrumental in the side's first-ever promotion to La Liga.[4]

Mané's Almería performances were much admired over the course of 2007–08, represented by him being named in Sky Sports pundit Guillem Balagué's team of the campaign[5] as the Andalusians overachieved and finished eighth. The player scored twice in the process, in 1–1 draws with RCD Mallorca and Recreativo de Huelva.[6][7]

On 3 June 2009, after appearing in 105 competitive matches for Almería (he would eventually total 125 across two spells),[8] Mané signed a four-year contract with Getafe CF.[9] An undisputed starter throughout his first season,[10] he scored his first goal for the Madrilenians on 13 April 2010, in a 3–0 home win over Villarreal CF.[11]

On 3 July 2013, aged nearly 32, Mané moved abroad for the first time, agreeing to a two-year deal at Maccabi Tel Aviv FC.[12] He made his debut 20 days later, starting against Győri ETO FC in the qualifying rounds of the UEFA Champions League.[13] He returned to former club Almería on 23 December, signing for 18 months.[14]

Managerial career

[edit]

Mané retired in June 2018 at the age of 36, after two seasons with amateurs Algeciras CF.[15] He then became their sporting director, leaving his post in early November 2019 after falling out with the board of directors.[16]

In summer 2020, Mané was hired as youth manager at UD Castellar.[17] On 22 April 2022, he took charge of the first team.[18]

Personal life

[edit]

From 2007 to 2009, Mané Ortiz was one of three Almería players with that surname, José Ortiz and Juan Manuel Ortiz being the others.[19]
