Esteban José Navarro Navarro (born 22 March 1976) is a retired Spanish footballer who played as a central midfielder, and is a current manager.
Most of his 17-year professional career was spent at Almería, where he amassed Segunda División totals of 82 games and two goals (adding 71/1 in Segunda División B).
Esteban was born in Almería, Andalusia. After beginning to play as a senior for CD Roquetas, he moved to his hometown's UD Almería, where he became a regular starter as the team climbed up from the fourth to the second division.
Esteban played his first match as a professional on 31 August 2002, starting in a 1–2 home loss against UD Salamanca.[1] He only scored his first goal in the second level on 27 September 2003, netting a last-minute equalizer in a 2–2 home draw to Recreativo de Huelva.[2]
On 12 January 2006, after struggling with injuries during the season,[3] Esteban moved to Córdoba CF from division three.[4] After being an ever-present figure during his spell, he moved back to first club Roquetas and retired in 2010, aged 34.[5]
Shortly after retiring, Esteban became assistant manager at his last club. He was appointed head coach on 17 May 2012,[6] leaving in the following summer.
In July 2013, Esteban returned to Almería, where he worked with the youth teams.[7] On 25 April 2018, after Fran Fernández's promotion to the first team, he was appointed manager of the reserves in the fourth tier.[8]
On 16 October 2019, Esteban was sacked by the Rojiblancos, being replaced by Nandinho.[9]
