Francisco Javier 'Javi' Pinillos Fernández (born 26 October 1969) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and the current coach of Racing de Santander.
Playing career
Born in Santander, Cantabria, Pinillos graduated with Racing de Santander's youth setup. In 1990 he made his first team debuts, appearing in seven matches as his side returned to Segunda División at first attempt.[1]
Pinillos played his first match as a professional on 15 December 1991, starting in a 0–1 away loss against Palamós CF.[2] He also appeared in five matches in the 1992–93 campaign, as the club achieved another promotion.
Pinillos made his La Liga debut on 19 March 1994, coming on as a first half substitute for field player Dmitri Popov in a 1–1 home draw against FC Barcelona.[3] Eight days later, he played the full 90 minutes in a 0–2 loss at Real Zaragoza.[4]
In the 1995 summer Pinillos was loaned to second level's CD Logroñés. After appearing regularly he returned to Racing in the following year, but was demoted to third-choice and made no appearances.
Pinillos subsequently resumed his career in the lower levels, representing Burgos CF, Jerez CF, Zamora CF, SD Ponferradina, Gimnástica de Torrelavega and CD Bezana, retiring with the latter in 2007.
Managerial career
In 2013 Pinillos returned to his first club Racing, now as a goalkeeper coach. On 3 March 2015, after Paco Fernández's dimissal, he was appointed manager of the main squad.[5]
