José Guadalupe Cruz Núñez (born Wednesday 22 November 1967) is a Mexican former professional footballer and manager.
He coached Atlante during the 2009 FIFA Club World Cup in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
[1] As a player, Cruz was a member of the Atlante side that won the 1993 Mexican championship.
He generally favours an attacking style of play, although he has neutered this instinct somewhat during the Apertura, where he has typically operated with just one out-and-out striker.
On 26 August 2013, Cruz was appointed as manager of Monterrey after parting company with Víctor Manuel Vucetich.
