Joaquín de Jesús Caparrós Camino (born 15 October 1955) is a Spanish football coach.

Caparrós was born in Utrera, Province of Seville, Andalusia. After an obscure career as a player, he started coaching in his mid-20s, his first club being amateurs San José Obrero CF. The first professional spell came at local Recreativo de Huelva, which he helped reach Segunda División in the second of his three years.

Caparrós was then on Villarreal CF's bench for seven games, as the Valencian Community side returned to La Liga after one year out, then led his following team, Sevilla FC, to a similar fate.

With youth products such as Carlos Marchena, José Antonio Reyes and JesuliSergio Ramos soon followed – and the future signings of Júlio Baptista, Adriano, Daniel Alves and Renato, the manager set the foundations for future domestic and European success, but was replaced by Juande Ramos before any of the actual conquests.

In the 2005 summer, Caparrós moved to Deportivo de La Coruña, being fired after a poor second season. Afterwards he was appointed at Athletic Bilbao, beating former club Sevilla in the semifinals of the 2008–09 edition of the Copa del Rey (4–2 aggregate) and qualifying for the UEFA Europa League as FC Barcelona won the treble.
