Byron Romeo Pérez Solórzano (born 18 March 1959) is a Guatemalan football coach and former player who spent most of his career with local club Comunicaciones, and was also a member of the Guatemala national team for over a decade, playing in three World Cup qualifying campaigns and at the Olympic Games.
Nicknamed "El Duende" ("the elf") due to his short height (he is 1.64 m tall), Pérez was a talented forward who played primarily on the left wing.
[1] He helped Comunicaciones win the 1978 CONCACAF title as he scored a goal against CD Once Municipal in the 3-1 victory in the first leg of the first round of the tournament.
[4][5] His team reached the final of the 1988-89 domestic cup tournament, where he scored a goal against Toluca in the second leg, although U. de G. lost 2-3 on aggregate.
Following his retirement, Pérez became a coach, managing several clubs, including Xinabajul, whom he led to win the 2007 Primera División de Ascenso Apertura championship which gave the team the right to fight for a promotion spot into the Liga Nacional the following year.
