Guillermo Amor Martínez (born 4 December 1967) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a versatile midfielder, and the current manager of Australian club Adelaide United FC.
After playing most of his professional career with Barcelona, winning several accolades during his ten-year tenure, he ended it in Scotland, with Livingston. Over the course of 12 seasons, he amassed La Liga totals of 375 games and 48 goals.
Amor won nearly 40 caps with Spain during the 1990s, representing the nation in one World Cup and one European Championship.
Born in Benidorm, Alicante, Valencian Community, Amor was a product of FC Barcelona's youth ranks, and made his first-team debuts in the 1988–89 season under Johan Cruyff, going on to become one of the Catalan team's most influential players as it achieved four consecutive La Liga titles and the 1991–92 European Cup (he did not play in the final against U.C. Sampdoria, however). In 1993–94, as the club conquered the last of a successive four leagues, he appeared in all games except one, scoring a career-best eight goals; additionally, on 5 April 1990, he opened the scoring in the Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid, helping to a 2–0 win at the Mestalla Stadium.
