Francisco José Güerri BallarÃÂn (born 13 April 1959) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Born in Benasque, Province of Huesca, Güerri only played for two clubs in his 14-year senior career, starting out at Real Zaragoza in his native Aragon. He made his La Liga debut on 11 February 1979 as a late substitute in a 1âÂÂ3 home loss against Sporting de Gijón, and scored his first goal on 30 September that year to help the hosts to defeat Real Betis 5âÂÂ1.
Güerri appeared in 345 competitive games during his spell at the La Romareda. He contributed 12 matches as his team won the 1985âÂÂ86 edition of the Copa del Rey, including the 1âÂÂ0 win over FC Barcelona in the final.
Güerri retired in summer 1991 at age 32, after three Segunda División seasons with UD Las Palmas; he had left Zaragoza after clashing with both the board of directors and new manager Radomir AntiÃÂ.
Güerri was part of Spain's squad in the 1980 Summer Olympics. He appeared in the 1âÂÂ1 group-stage draw with East Germany, in an eventual exit at the end of that phase.
On 5 October 1983, Güerri won his first cap for the full side, starting the 1âÂÂ1 friendly draw against France in Paris. He appeared in a further two internationals.
