Humberto Antonio García Ramírez (born 13 May 1974) is a Paraguayan football manager and former player who played as a midfielder.

Career[edit]

After notably playing as a senior for Sport Colombia, García began his managerial career with the club in 2007. He left at the end of the 2009 season, subsequently taking over Sportivo San Lorenzo, but returned to Sport Colombia shortly after.

In 2011, García was appointed manager of General Díaz, helping in their promotion to Primera División in 2012, as champions.[1] He was sacked on 29 March 2015,[2] and was named at the helm of fellow top tier side Deportivo Capiatá on 6 April.[3]

Dismissed by Capiatá on 24 August 2015,[4] García returned to General Díaz seven days later,[5] and helped the side to avoid relegation. After a short period back at Sport Colombia, he took over Fernando de la Mora in July 2016,[6] before returning once again to General Díaz on 21 November;[7] the club again narrowly avoided relegation.

Back at Fernando de la Mora for the 2017 season, García was replaced by Julio Villalba in May of that year. On 16 April 2018, he was named manager of Deportivo Liberación in the second division,[8] but was sacked on 3 July.[9]

On 5 March 2019, García was named at the helm of Sportivo Ameliano in the Primera División B. After achieving promotion to the second division as champions, he led the club to the top tier in 2021, after winning the promotion/relegation play-offs.

On 18 September 2022, García was sacked by Ameliano,[10] and was appointed in charge of third division side Mariscal López two days later.[11] On 22 November, he returned to Ameliano after Juan Pablo Pumpido resigned,[12] but left the club himself on 31 December.[13]

On 11 February 2024, García was appointed manager of Sol de América also in the top tier,[14] but was dismissed on 21 April.[15]
