Roberto Andrés Marinangeli (born 24 April 1981) is an Argentine football manager and former player who played as a goalkeeper. He is the current manager of Bolivian club Real Potosí.
In 2017, Marinangeli was recruited by Guangzhou Evergrande to work in their football schools in Madrid,[6] and also returned to Aluche in January 2018, now named first team manager.[4] In the 2019–20 season, he was a part of Lolo Escobar's coaching staff at Las Rozas CF, working as a goalkeeping coach.[7]
In August 2020, after a short period in charge of lowly Madrilenian side Iglesia La Vid FC,[8] Marinangeli moved to the United Arab Emirates to work as the under-18 manager of Dibba Al-Hisn SC.[9] He switched teams and countries again in July 2021, after being named David Perdiguero's assistant at Bolivian club Real Santa Cruz.[10]
Marinangeli left the Bolivian side in December 2021, being named manager of Altos Hornos Zapla in his home country shortly after.[11][12] On 16 March 2022, he returned to Real Santa Cruz, now being appointed first team manager in the place of sacked Daniel Farrar.[13]
On his managerial debut for the Albos on 2 April 2022, Marinangeli's side defeated Oriente Petrolero by 2–1.[14] On 21 November, he left Santa Cruz.[15]
On 5 January 2023, Marinangeli remained in Bolivia after being named in charge of Jorge Wilstermann.[16] Eighteen days later, however, a new board of the club presented Christian Díaz as manager, and he was dismissed;[17] on 17 February, he remained in the country after taking over top tier newcomers Libertad Gran Mamoré,[18] but was sacked less than a month later.[19]
On 15 August 2023, Marinangeli was appointed manager of Guabirá, still in the Bolivian top tier.[20] He was sacked from the club on 8 November,[21] and returned to Real Santa Cruz the following 9 April.[22]
