Fernando Martínez Perales (born 21 May 1967), commonly known as Nando, is a Spanish retired professional footballer who played as a left-back, also a manager.
Nando joined Deportivo de La Coruña on a free transfer in the summer of 1992, which also saw Adolfo Aldana, Bebeto and Mauro Silva arrive at the Estadio Riazor.
During his spell, the Galician side began their rise to Super Depor fame, winning its first two trophies – the Copa del Rey[3] and the Supercopa de España, both in 1995 – which were the player's first and only honours.
[2] Although he regained first-choice status for the 1996–97 season he lost his place to Frenchman Jérôme Bonnissel in the following, and signed with Segunda División team Sevilla FC in January 1998 after five and a half years and 202 competitive appearances.
Nando helped the Andalusians to promote to the top flight in his first full season, but suffered immediate relegation in a campaign in which he played 30 league matches, and met the same fate the following year with second-tier SD Compostela, after which he retired from professional football aged 34, going on to compete at amateur level with Atlético Arteixo.
