Timeline

1959

Carmelo José Navarro Careaga (born 25 March 1959) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a centre back.

Navarro was born in Murcia, capital of the autonomous community of the Region of Murcia, but his family moved twice in his early years, first to A Coruña in Galica, and then to El Puerto de Santa María in the province of Cádiz, Andalusia.

He played for the Ural youth team in A Coruña, and joined Safa San Luis when relocating to El Puerto.

1974

His excellent performances as a centre back drew comparisons to 1974 FIFA World Cup winning captain, Franz Beckenbauer, with his similarity to the German earning him the nickname el Beckenbauer de la Bahía, which translates as the Beckenbauer of the Bay.

After retiring, Navarro worked as a commentator for Canal Sur and Canal+, commentating on Segunda División matches.

He also set up a company producing wine and vinegar.

He became a councillor in El Puerto de Santa María, representing the People's Party.

1977

He was noticed by scouts of El Puerto-based Racing Portuense, and joined the Segunda División B side in 1977, aged just 18.

Navarro spent two seasons with Portuense, making 66 appearances in all competitions, and scoring ten goals.

1979

This earned him a move to La Liga side Salamanca in 1979, where he scored twice in 24 matches over the next two seasons.

1980

Salamanca were relegated at the end of the 1980–81 season, in which Navarro's appearances were limited due to serving his military service in Cartagena, Ferrol and Madrid.

He moved on again that summer, joining Real Betis.

His reputation in Cádiz is rivalled only by Salvadoran forward Mágico González, who played alongside Navarro in the late 1980s.

1982

Betis finished an excellent sixth in his first season, and therefore qualified for the 1982–83 UEFA Cup.

Navarro made his European debut on 15 September 1982, in the away first leg of Betis's first round tie against Portugal's Benfica at Estádio da Luz.

Betis lost 2–1, and were eliminated after suffering an identical loss in the second leg.

1983

For 1983–84, Navarro was sent out on loan to Recreativo de Huelva in the Segunda División.

1984

He returned to Betis the following season, but broke his right knee in late 1984, and missed the rest of the season.

1985

On his recovery, he was loaned to Recreativo again in the 1985–86 season, but he played just seven matches before injuring his left knee while playing away at Elche in November 1985.

Once again, he missed the rest of the season, and Betis released him from his contract, considering his career to be over after the two injuries.

He had amassed a total of 61 appearances for Betis, scoring once.

However, he didn't want to retire, and Recre allowed him to train with them during his recovery.

1986

At the start of the 1986–87 season, coach Víctor Espárrago offered him a permanent contract, and he returned to football.

He had a great season, which brought his total appearances in three seasons in Huelva to 77, with five goals.

This earned him an offer to move back to the top flight with Cádiz, and the chance to play in his home province proved too good to resist.

1987

He joined Cádiz in 1987, and went on to play for the club for seven seasons.

1990

This spell included facing relegation playoffs twice, triumphing on each occasion: Navarro scored in the shoot-out as they beat Málaga on penalties in 1990–91, and they also saw off Figueres the following year.

1992

After that, they were constantly flirting with relegation, but survived until finally being relegated in 1992–93.

1993

His last season with the club was the 1993–94 Segunda División campaign, which saw them suffer a second consecutive relegation, before he retired in 1994 at the age of 35.

He left Cádiz after 260 appearances and four goals.

He is a legendary figure in the club's history, having served as club captain during one of their most successful periods.

2012

His first season saw Cádiz achieve the highest league placing in their history, as they finished 12th.

2019

He resigned in 2019, choosing to dedicate more time to his business.

He was part of a group of councillors being investigated for potentially perverting the course of justice, although he maintained his innocence.
