Javier Pérez (soccer coach) → Javier Pérez (football manager) – Standardizing page name, "soccer" is a title for football players/coaches from the US. BRDude70 (talk) 18:27, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Thus far, he has only coached in North America and in MLS there are two separate roles which would be filled by the "manager" - the "head coach" who is responsible for the matchday squad and the "general manager" who is responsible for player acquisition and other duties. So, not a true 'manager', because he only thus far been in a coaching role. RedPatch (talk) 18:51, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Manager and coach are more or less synonymous depending on who you ask.--Ortizesp (talk) 21:56, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Per our guidelines at WP:ENGVAR, we use the variety of English most-linked to the subject if there is a strong link, or otherwise keep the stable version. The proposal goes against both of those. The subject currently coaches for a Canadian team, and before that a US team, comprising the majority and entire notable portion of his career, so the current usage seems the proper one. No !vote seems to explain why we would ignore ENGVAR, or really why there is any policy justification for this move.--Yaksar (let's chat) 13:46, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

- Support as per standard naming conventions for Spanish managers. The fact he is active in MLS is irrelevant; we would not re-name an American player active in Europe to a 'footballer', they remain 'soccer'. What happens if/when he moves back to Spain? etc. GiantSnowman 13:53, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
