Playing career
editBorn in Beniparrell, Valencian Community, Casañ made his senior debut in the Regional Preferente with Picassent CF in 1995, and moved straight to Segunda División B in the following year with SD Huesca. After suffering relegation, he signed for CF Badalona in Tercera División, but joined fellow league team CP Villarrobledo one year later.[1]
Casañ would play in the third and fourth tiers for the remainder of his career, representing Talavera CF, Benidorm CF (achieving promotion to the third division in 2004), CD Alcoyano, UB Conquense and SCR Peña Deportiva. In 2009, after the latter's relegation, he agreed to a deal with Catarroja CF.
On 4 July 2010, Casãn returned to Peña, with the club in the division four.[2] In 2012, he retired at the age of 35.[3]
Managerial career
editImmediately after retiring, Casañ became a sporting director of his last club Peña Deportiva, being later named manager of the Juvenil side.[4] On 5 June 2018, following the main squad's relegation to the fourth division, he was named manager of the squad.[5]
Casañ led Peña to an immediate promotion in his first year,[6] and reached the play-offs in his second, missing out a second consecutive promotion after losing to CD Castellón. He also reached the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey in the 2020–21 season, but opted to leave the club on 26 May 2021, after 11 years linked with Peña overall.[7]
Hours after leaving Peña, Casañ was named manager of Primera División RFEF side UE Cornellà for the 2021–22 campaign.[8] The following 21 March, after a four-match winless streak which saw the club enter the relegation zone, he was sacked.[9]
On 15 June 2022, Casañ took over Unionistas de Salamanca CF also in the third division,[10] but was dismissed on 19 February of the following year.[11] On 26 May 2023, he was named at the helm of CD Ibiza Islas Pitiusas in Tercera Federación.[12][13]
