Luis Tevenet


Luis García Tevenet is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a forward, and the coach of Atlético Levante UD.
In a 14-year professional career, spent mainly with Sevilla, he appeared in 359 matches the two major divisions of Spanish football combined, scoring 69 goals.

Playing career

Born in Seville, Andalusia, and a product of hometown Sevilla FC's prolific youth system, Tevenet made his first-team and La Liga debut on 2 January 1994, playing 29 minutes in a 1–0 home win against Real Sociedad. However, he would never be more than a relatively used attacking player, mainly from the bench.
Tevenet completed his football development aged 23 when he joined Atlético Madrid B, appearing in five matches for the main squad during the 1998–99 season as a substitute. Subsequently, he spent two years at UD Las Palmas, scoring five goals in 28 games in his last year – only nine starts – as the Canarians suffered top-flight relegation.
After that, Tevenet competed mostly in the second and third levels, for Polideportivo Ejido, Algeciras CF, CD Numancia and UE Lleida. For 2007–08 he joined Orihuela CF where, after a season and a half, he retired and became the new coach of the team.

Coaching career

In late 2009, Tevenet managed Jerez Industrial CF in division three for only a month before quitting due to the club's financial problems. In March 2010, following former Sevilla teammate Manolo Jiménez's dismissal as coach, he returned to the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium and was appointed assistant manager, leaving his post in September after Antonio Álvarez's sacking.
Tevenet returned to the third tier with CD San Roque de Lepe in 2011, leaving after one year. He then signed for fellow league side UCAM Murcia CF, halfway through a season that ended in relegation; he remained in the Region of Murcia for 2013–14 at FC Cartagena, leaving after a 1–5 aggregate defeat to Real Avilés in the promotion playoffs.
On 29 June 2014, Tevenet was appointed manager of SD Huesca. He led the Aragonese to first place in their group, and promotion to the second division via a 3–1 aggregate win over Huracán Valencia CF in the playoffs. He was fired on 30 November, after a run of four consecutive defeats.
Tevenet was named manager of Hércules CF on 1 July 2016, and was sacked the following 5 March for a poor run of form. On 22 June 2017, he returned to Sevilla to manage the reserves in the second division. After his season ended with relegation, he left for another B-team, Atlético Levante UD.
