Career

Herrera was born in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz, Andalusia, and played for hometown side Xerez CD as a youth before retiring. He began his managerial career with SD Mundo Nuevo at the age of 23, and went on to work at CF Rapid Ibiza, Nueva Jarilla AD and Liberación CF before joining Atlético Sanluqueño CF in 2011, as a manager of the Cadete squad.[1]

Herrera was subsequently in charge of the Juvenil and B teams of Sanluqueño before being appointed manager of the first team in Tercera División on 31 December 2014, after Puma resigned.[2] On 2 July 2016, after leading the side to a promotion to Segunda División B, he opted to leave the club,[3] and took over Arcos CF in the fourth division two days later.[4]

On 19 June 2017, Herrera was named manager of San Fernando CD in the third tier.[5] On 4 June 2019, after two mid-table campaigns, he departed the club.[6]

On 26 June 2019, Herrera agreed to become the manager of fourth division side CD Ibiza Islas Pitiusas on a two-year contract.[7] On 2 July of the following year, the club announced that he would depart the side after the play-offs,[8] which they ultimately lost to RCD Mallorca B.

On 9 August 2020, Herrera was named at the helm of Xerez Deportivo FC also in division four.[9] He led the club to a promotion to Segunda División RFEF in his first season, later becoming the manager with most matches in charge of the side, before being sacked on 24 October 2022.[10]

On 4 May 2025, Herrera returned to Sanluqueño as the club's fifth manager of the campaign, with the club in Primera Federación.[11]
