Excerpt: Manuel Luis Pellegrini Ripamonti (born 16 September 1953) is a Chilean former footballer and former manager of Real Madrid. Born in Santiago, Pellegrini attended the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile in Santiago, where he graduated as a civil engineer in 1979. As a footballer, he played his entire career for Universidad de Chile, making a total of 451 appearances, scoring 1 goal. As a coach, he has managed teams mostly in Argentina and Chile.

He started coaching Universidad de Chile during the 1988 season, year in which he unfortunately lost the category, a very disappointing situation for one of the most popular clubs in the country. After coaching Palestino and O'Higgins, he became coach of Universidad Catolica, another one of the biggest clubs from Chile, and he had an amazing team with players such as Alberto Acosta and Nestor Gorosito, but he could only finish as runner-up during 1994 and 1995 seasons. Pellegrini coached Ecuadorian club LDU Quito to a national title in 1999 and 2000, starting a tradition of coaches that followed him to the Ecuadorian team.
