Alberto Argibay Pazos (born 16 January 1965), known in Spain as Alberto Argibay and in Portugal as Alberto Pazos, is a Spanish former football manager.
In 2001, Argibay was hired at S.C. Farense. He was fired on 27 November with the team three points above the relegation zone, despite winning his last match 1–0 against S.C. Beira-Mar.[2]
Argibay was hired by Pontevedra in January 2005, after replacing José Aurelio Gay.[4] In June, despite relegation from the Segunda División, his contract was extended for another year.[5] The team reached the playoffs in 2006, losing to Sevilla Atlético.[6] President Nino Mirón sacked him at 2 a.m. on 22 March 2007, hours after defeating Ontinyent CF to reach the Copa Federación final; his replacement with ten games to go was Javi Gracia, who had only ever managed Villarreal CF's youth team.[6]
On 8 April 2007, Argibay returned to Portugal's top flight on a contract of undisclosed length at 9th-placed C.S. Marítimo.[7] He earned the team two points from the remaining six games of the season.[8]
Argibay founded ICD Consulting, involved in football agency and investment in the game. In June 2015 his company was interested in buying Real Avilés Industrial CF, until the club was unexpectedly relegated to the Tercera División.[9]
