José Manuel Sulantay Silva (3 April 1940 – 20 July 2023) was a Chilean football player and manager. He notably managed the Chile U20 and Chile U17 national team, leading the Chile U20 to a third-place finish at the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Canada. At a FIFA level, Sulantay is Chile's second most successful coach after Fernando Riera.
Playing career
Sulantay was born in Coquimbo, Chile. As a youth player, he was with Atlético El Llano from his hometown.[5] At professional level, he officially debuted with Deportes La Serena in 1957. There, he highlighted as right back or right wing. This allowed him being called to Chilean national U-20 team that participated in the 1958 South American Championship held in his country.[6]
After losing with Serena the 1959 Copa Chile final against Santiago Wanderers, in 1960 he achieved with the team that season's Copa Chile edition. Equally, in 1959 he was the cup's top scorer with six goals alongside Juan Soto ―from Colo-Colo― and Héctor Torres from Magallanes.
Managerial career
Early seasons: 1976–1989
After being promoted to Coquimbo Unido's first adult team by Enrique Hormazábal[7] (nicknamed «Cuá-cuá»), he was the manager of both Coquimbo Unido and Deportes La Serena for twelve years.
Cobreloa
In 1992, he achieved a Primera División de Chile title with the club.[8][9]
Chile youth teams: 2003–2007
During 2007 FIFA Youth World Cup, on 20 June, his team was involved in a clash with the Canadian police after the players tried to cross security barriers to meet with fans,[10] conflict that even extended to Harold Mayne-Nicholls[11] —president of the ANFP— who was beaten by Toronto's police.[11] These events even transcended beyond football by provoking complaints from the President Michelle Bachelet, the Chilean consul in Toronto and Human Rights Watch director José Miguel Vivanco.[11] Days later also FIFA president Joseph Blatter condemned the violence from Canadian police.[12]
After Chile U20's performance in 2007 FIFA Youth World Cup, he was the candidate to replace Nelson Acosta in the adult national team.[13][14] Nevertheless, on 30 July, he officially declined.[15] Likewise, according to journalist Francisco Sagredo, this option didn't prosper because Sulantay would have broken the confidentiality pact by telling this possibility to media.[13]
Municipal Iquique
On 5 January 2008, he joined Primera B side Municipal Iquique.[16]
On 11 September 2008, he renounced to Iquique's bench.[17]

Coaching style
According to him:
"I am a follower of Rinus Michels".[20][21]
Political career
In 2012, he competed to be mayor of Coquimbo as an independent with support from conservative party Independent Democratic Union («UDI»).[1][2][3][4] However, he lost the elections against Cristian Galleguillos from Christian Democratic Party, who obtained a 45,6% instead Sulantay's 27,5% (he finished second in the election).[22]
Personal life
Sulantay had five children – José Carlo, Marcelo, Paula, Marco Antonio [es] and Carolina – along with his wife, Marcia Olivares.[5] Marco Antonio is a journalist and politician who has served as Director of IND [es] (National Sports Institute), CORE [es] (Regional Minister) and Deputy.[23]
