Víctor Fernández Braulio (born 28 November 1960) is a Spanish football coach.
Fernández was born in Zaragoza, Aragon. Late into the 1990–91 season, aged only 30, he was promoted to hometown Real Zaragoza's first team, eventually leading it to the 17th league position and avoiding La Liga relegation in the playoffs against Real Murcia; at the time of his beginnings, he was the second youngest manager to ever coach in the category, after Xabier Azkargorta.
In the following years Fernández helped Zaragoza consolidate in the top division, notably reconverting Gustavo Poyet from forward to attacking midfielder and winning the Copa del Rey in 1994 and the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in the next season. He was relieved of his duties on 8 November 1996, meeting the same fate the following year with his next club, CD Tenerife.
For four complete seasons in the late 90s/early 2000s, Fernández was in charge of Celta de Vigo, helping the Galicians qualify three times for the UEFA Cup during his spell while playing highly attractive football. From 2002–04 he worked with fellow top flight team Real Betis, respectively finishing eighth and ninth in his two years.
