Club career

Born in Seville, Andalusia, Abascal joined Barcelona's La Masia in 2001, from hometown amateurs AD Heliópolis CF.[1] He left the club in 2004, and finished his formation with Sevilla FC.[2]

Abascal retired from professional football at the age of 18, and started studying at the Pablo de Olavide University in his hometown,[3] while still representing amateurs UDE Abre and CD Aboño. He also spent a year at the University of Algarve, and returned to Sevilla in 2013 as a youth fitness coach.

Abascal's first managerial experience came in 2016, when he took over Sevilla's Infantil B squad.[4] On 12 June 2017, he moved abroad, being appointed manager of Swiss Challenge League side FC Chiasso.[5]

Abascal was sacked on 4 April 2018, after suffering six defeats in his last eight matches.[6] Six days later, he was named at the helm of FC Lugano in the Swiss Super League until the end of the season;[7] with the club placed ninth and threatened with relegation, he led the club to the eight position, three points shy of the European qualification places.

In the summer 2019, Abascal was hired as manager for the Primavera squad (U19) of Italian club Ascoli.[8] On 27 January 2020, Paolo Zanetti was dismissed as the head coach of the senior squad, and Abascal was appointed as caretaker manager.[9] On 2 February 2020, Roberto Stellone was hired as new Ascoli manager, Ascoli won their only game under Abascal's helm 3–0 against Livorno.

Following Roberto Stellone's appointment as new head coach, Abascal returned to his previous role as youth coach. On 16 April, after Stellone was dismissed from his role after two months in charge, Abascal was appointed as new first team head coach.[10] Following two defeats in two games in charge by the time the league season was resumed after the COVID-19 forced break, he was dismissed himself on 22 June.[11]

gollark: Then you won't get HTTPS or nice links.
gollark: It *can* also just serve static files, which are good enough for most cases.
