Nelson Hernán León Sánchez (born 3 October 1966), known as Nelson León Sánchez or Nelson Sanchez, is a Chilean former professional footballer who played as a forward for clubs in Paraguay, Chile, Greece and Indonesia.

Playing career

León Sánchez played in Paraguay for Guaraní, Libertad and Tembetary until the club was relegated to the second division.[1] Then, he returned to his country of birth and played for Magallanes[2] and Deportes La Serena.[1] After a stint in the Greek football,[1] he came to Indonesia in 1995 to play for Persma Manado,[3] where he coincided with his compatriots Rodrigo Araya and Juan Rodríguez Rubio.[4] In 1996 he switched to Arema Malang, coinciding with his compatriots Juan Rodríguez Rubio, again, and Julio César Moreno,[5] becoming the first Latin trio to play for the club.[6] He also played for Persema Malang[7] and PSMS Medan. He retired in 2000.[3]

Agent career

In 2001 he became a football agent[8] by starting a company called "PT Sanchezgoal Management" based in Cinere, Depok. He has been the representative of players such as Mohamed Sissoko, Ronald Fagundez, Arthur Cunha and Patrick Cruz.[3] He also was the representative of his compatriot Julio Lopez along with his father, Luis.[9]

Controversies

He and his wife was involved in a case of human trafficking in Paraguay since they took about thirty Indonesian teenagers to that country with no papers, according to the Paraguayan judicial authorities.[10] In principle, the Indonesian teenagers, who were young football players, would be educated and trained in the country to represent Paraguay in the future in the context of a sport project where also took part well-known professional coached such as Miguel Ángel Arrué and Hugo Villasanti.[11] When he served as the representative of his compatriot Nelson San Martín, the agreed conditions to live in Indonesia weren't suitable, according to San Martín.[12]

Coaching career

In November 2019, he became the coach of Persiba Bantul in the Indonesian Liga 3.[3] In 2022, he coached PSGJ Cirebon in the same league.[13]

Personal life

He married the Indonesian Teti Citraresmi Rahayu[10] and made his home in Indonesia.[3]
