*Club domestic league appearances and goals

Roberto Simón Marina (born 28 August 1961) is a Spanish retired professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

Over 11 seasons, he amassed La Liga totals of 265 games and 45 goals, with Atlético Madrid and Mallorca.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Villanueva de la Serena, Province of Badajoz, Marina started his professional career with Atlético Madrid, being definitely promoted to the first team for the 1982–83 season[1] and scoring five goals in 25 games as they finished in third position in La Liga. With the Colchoneros, he won the Copa del Rey in 1985 and was a starter in the 1986 European Cup Winners' Cup final, lost 3–0 to FC Dynamo Kyiv.[2]

Having made 315 competitive appearances for the Madrid side, with the honour of scoring their 3,000th league goal on 14 January 1990,[1] Marina finished his 15-year career following spells with RCD Mallorca[3] and CD Toledo (the latter in the Segunda División), retiring at the age of 33.[4] He began a manager career shortly after, starting with his last team then moving to CD Ourense, always as an assistant; he subsequently returned to Atlético, being charged with the youth sides and the C team in the Tercera División.

Marina returned to assistant manager duties under his mentor as a player at Atlético Luis Aragonés, who brought him to the staff in 2001.[5] Two seasons later, he aided José Murcia at Atlético B, continuing to work with the latter in the following years.[6]

International career

[edit]

After regular performances for Atlético, Marina earned his only cap for Spain: on 26 May 1985, he played six minutes in a friendly against the Republic of Ireland, in Cork.[7]
