Jahir Butrón

Jahir Butrón Gotuzzo (born 30 October 1975) is a Peruvian football manager and former player who manages Pirata.

Butrón is the older brother of goalkeeper Leao Butrón.

Playing career A centre-back, Butrón started his football career in the popular youth academy of Sporting Cristal but did not manage to win a starting spot in the senior squad. He scored in the 85th minute, and it was the final goal in the 4–2 win at home against FBC Melgar. The following year he returned to Deportivo Wanka and scored two goals for them in the 2002 season. The first goal salvaged a draw and was scored in the 81st minute away to Coronel Bolognesi for a 3–3 result. The other goal secured the three points against Juan Aurich. The next year he rejoined Alianza Atlético. In the 2003 season Butrón once again managed to score against Estudiantes de Medicina in the 3–1 win at home. Most notably that same season he scored a late equalizer that canceled Antonio Meza Cuadra's early goal away to Peruvian giants Universitario de Deportes for a final 1–1 result.

Managerial career Having become a coach, he managed Cultural Santa Rosa (now Club Deportivo Los Chankas) in the second division in 2017. He won the second division title with his former playing club, Alianza Atlético, in 2020, the club's centenary year.

In 2021, he took charge of FC Carlos Stein, whom he led to promotion to the first division after a victorious playoff against Deportivo Binacional.
