About Moises Barack

Lived 1943 – 2024 (aged 80). Moises Barack was a Peruvian association football player and association football coach.

Moisés Barack Caycho (Ica, 26 December 1943 – Lima, 9 April 2024) was a Peruvian football player and manager.

Nicknamed Moshé, he was the coach of Peru between 1984 and 1985 and managed numerous clubs in his native country as well as in Bolivia.

Playing career Playing as a defender, Moisés Barack made his debut in the second division in 1959 with Juventud Gloria. But he became well-known in the 1960s, first at Centro Iqueño, then at Universitario de Deportes, the club where he played from 1961 to 1965 and with which he won the championship in 1964.

Managerial career Having become a coach, Moisés Barack made a big splash by winning his first title in Peru, the 1976 championship, with a modest provincial club: Unión Huaral. In 1984, he took charge of the Peruvian national team for the 1986 World Cup qualifiers. Sacked on 10 June 1985, the day after a goalless draw at home against Colombia, he learned the news in a radio studio from a journalist who was about to give him an interview. He was replaced by Roberto Chale.

Barack then went into exile in Bolivia where he enjoyed a golden period managing two clubs in La Paz: Club Bolívar (champions in 1985 and 1991) and The Strongest (champions in 1989).

His return to Peru was not particularly memorable, and aside from a Copa Perú title won in 1996 with José Gálvez FBC, his career was largely scattered, involving coaching second-tier clubs. In 2006, he relegated Unión Huaral, the club he had led to the title in 1976, to the second division. He returned to the first division with Sport Huancayo in 2013, after a six-year absence from the top flight, but was incredibly dismissed after the first matchday of the 2013 season.
