Oliverio Jesús Álvarez González (born 2 April 1972), commonly known as Oli, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a striker, currently a manager.
He started his career with hometown club Real Oviedo, making his La Liga debut on 10 January 1993 in a 0–0 home draw against Albacete Balompié[3] and being mainly associated with the reserves in his beginnings.
[5][6][7][4] Subsequently, he signed a six-year contract with fellow top-tier side Real Betis,[8] pairing up front with Alfonso and netting nine times in his first year in Andalusia.
[11] Moving into coaching in 2006, Oli started precisely with Cádiz, but was dismissed after only a few months in charge[12] as the team eventually failed to regain their top-flight status winning just four from 11 games with him.
[16] In the summer of 2019, after achieving promotion to Segunda División B without conceding one single goal in the play-offs,[17] he agreed to a new deal; in January 2021, however, he resigned as he felt he was not able to perform his job properly anymore.
