Javier Eduardo Carvajal Burgos (born 1 June 1989) is an Ecuadorian football manager and former player who played as a goalkeeper. He is the current manager of Delfín.

Playing career

[edit]

Born in Jipijapa, Manabí, Carvajal was a youth product of Manta,[1] and made his senior debut with the club in 2006 at the age of 17.[2][3] After failing to establish himself as a regular starter, he served loans at Águilas Santo Domingo [es] and Jipijapa.

In 2011, after another spell at Águilas, Carvajal joined Grecia in the Ecuadorian Serie B. He moved to Delfín in the following year, before representing Fuerza Amarilla in the 2013 season, both in the Segunda Categoría.

Managerial career

[edit]

After retiring, Carvajal became an assistant at former side Delfín, being also an interim in September 2020 for one match between the spells of Carlos Ischia and Miguel Ángel Zahzú. He subsequently returned to his previous role, before becoming a manager of affiliate club La Paz [es] for the 2024 season.

On 16 September 2024, Carvajal was named interim manager of Delfín until the end of the year, replacing sacked Juan Pablo Buch.[4][5]
