Career

edit

Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Riutort played youth football with hometown sides Penya Espanyolista Manigua and CE Europa but had to retire due to a back injury. After retiring, he started working as a coach in the youth sides of UFB Jàbac Terrassa before returning to Europa in 2007, initially as a manager of the Infantil B team.[1]

Riutort moved to UE Cornellà in 2011, and worked at the club for six years before returning to Europa on 8 June 2017, replacing Walter Pandiani at the helm of the Juvenil A squad.[2][3] He left the latter club on 17 April 2020,[4] and returned to Cornellà the following day, taking over their Juvenil A side.[5]

On 21 March 2022, Riutort replaced sacked Raúl Casañ at the helm of Cornellà's first team in Primera División RFEF.[6][7] He made his debut at the helm of the team six days later, in a 2–0 home win over UE Costa Brava.[8][9]

After helping the club to narrowly avoid relegation, Riutort renewed his contract with the UEC for a further season.[10] He agreed to another one-year extension on 17 April 2023,[11] and led the side to the 11th position in the 2022–23 campaign.
