Luis Miguel Ramis · Biography

The first trophy of Luis Miguel Ramis Monfort's career came in 1993, when he won the Copa del Rey with Real Madrid. Born in Tarragona on 25 July 1970, he was a 1.90-metre centre-back who played at the top level of Spanish football through the 1990s. After retiring in 2006 he went into coaching. He worked in Real Madrid's academy and went on to manage UD Almería, Albacete Balompié, CD Tenerife, RCD Espanyol, Burgos CF and CA Osasuna.

Youth football and debut at Real Madrid

He came through the youth ranks at Nàstic de Tarragona, where he spent 1989 to 1991. In 1991 he joined Real Madrid and was placed in Castilla, the reserve side, where he stayed until 1993. He made his first-team debut in the UEFA Cup against Vitesse. His first game in the Spanish top flight came on 6 December 1992, against Rayo Vallecano. He played seven league games in 1992-93 and seventeen in 1993-94, scoring once. Those two years brought him the 1993 Copa del Rey, the 1993 Spanish Super Cup and the 1994 Copa Iberoamericana.

Tenerife, Sevilla and a title with Deportivo

In 1994 he moved to CD Tenerife as part of the deal that took Fernando Redondo to Real Madrid. He made 60 appearances and scored four goals in two seasons on the island. In 1996 he signed for Sevilla FC, where he played 39 games and scored once in a season that ended in relegation. In 1997 he joined Deportivo de La Coruña. Injuries limited his four years in Galicia, but he was in the squad that won the 2000 Spanish league title, the club's first, and the Spanish Super Cup later that year.

The final years of his playing career

In the 2001 winter window he went on loan to Racing de Santander. He spent the 2001-02 season back at Nàstic, the club where he had started out. In December 2002 he signed for Racing de Ferrol. In 2003 he moved to UD San Sebastián de los Reyes, although he never made an official appearance for them. He then played for CD Pegaso Tres Cantos in 2004-05 and CD Cobeña in 2005-06. He retired in 2006, the year Cobeña won promotion to Segunda División B, Spain's third tier at the time.

In November 2011 he took charge of the Juvenil A, the club's top youth team, and stayed until 2015. He led them in 164 matches, including the 2013-14 UEFA Youth League. In January 2016 he stepped up to Real Madrid Castilla. The side missed out on promotion, and at the end of the 2015-16 season he was replaced by Santiago Solari.

Burgos and Osasuna

Burgos CF hired him on 31 October 2024 to replace Jon Pérez Bolo, and he spent two seasons at El Plantío. In 2025-26 the team collected 72 points but missed the promotion play-offs, and on 2 June 2026 Ramis announced he would not stay. Eight days later, on 10 June 2026, CA Osasuna named him head coach.
