Fernando Castro Santos (born 20 February 1952) is a Spanish football manager.
During his career, he worked in several clubs in his country as well as in Portugal.
Born in Poio, Province of Pontevedra, Santos began working as a manager at only 30 with local Pontevedra CF, before moving to Galician neighbours SD Compostela in 1989. During his six-year spell at the latter club, he led it from the fourth division to La Liga.
After helping Compos retain their top flight status in the 1994–95 season, Santos stayed in the region, signing with Celta de Vigo and remaining there for two years. He started 1997–98 in Portugal with S.C. Braga, being sacked after a few months (the side eventually reached the domestic cup final) and returning to his country with Sevilla FC, in the second level.
Leaving Sevilla in the summer 1999 after the team's top flight promotion, Santos spent the following years at CD Tenerife, Polideportivo Ejido,Córdoba CF, UD Almería and UD Vecindario – all in the country's second tier, safe for 2000–01; he also spent some of the 2002–03 campaign again at Braga, meeting the same fate.
