Career Born in Caracas, Saragó had brief spells for hometown side Caracas and Italchacao as a player, before retiring. He started working at the youth schools of Fray Luis and San Agustín del Marques, before later taking over the youth sides of Centro Italo Venezolano and then being an assistant manager of the Venezuela national under-20 team.

In 2008, Saragó was appointed manager of Zamora for the Clausura tournament, and led the side to a seventh position. In July of that year, he took over Deportivo Italia, leading the side to the first position in the 2008 Apertura and later losing the Finals to Caracas; he later continued at the club when they changed name to Deportivo Petare in 2010.
