Fabián Coito

Fabián Coito Machado (born 3 March 1967)[1] is a Uruguayan football manager and former player who played as a defender.

He briefly was the manager of the senior Uruguay national team until Óscar Tabárez renewed his contract with ‘La Celeste’ and was reinstated as head coach.

In the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup, Coito came under criticism as his Honduras side was eliminated very early on from the tournament after losing to Jamaica and Curaçao.

In 2021, Coito managed Honduras to a third place finish in 2021 CONCACAF Nations League Finals after beating rivals Costa Rica on penalties.

On 13 October 2021, Coito was sacked by Honduras after a string of poor results throughout the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers which included three losses and three draws in six matches.
