Javier Aguirre Onaindía (Spanish pronunciation: ; born 1 December 1958), popularly nicknamed El Vasco (The Basque), is a Mexican former footballer.
As a player, Aguirre was a member of the Mexico national team and later became coach on two separate occasions, but resigned after the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
He has managed several teams, his most recent being the Egyptian National Football Team, until his dismissal immediately after Egypt’s unfortunate loss against South Africa during AFCON 2019.
Aguirre began his career as a youth product of Club América in 1979, though he was sold to Los Angeles Aztecs of the North American Soccer League. Club América later bought him back, where he established himself as a midfielder. He played an integral part in their various title winning seasons, most notably during the 1983–84 season where América reached the league finals against arch-rivals Guadalajara, managing to score a goal in a 3–1 win at the Estadio Azteca. Aguirre also played outside Mexico, signing with Osasuna in Spain in 1986. In 1987, he transferred to Guadalajara, where he made over 100 appearances up until his retirement in 1993.
