After helping Compos retain their top flight status in the 1994–95 season,[1] Santos stayed in the region, signing with Celta de Vigo and remaining there for two years.[2] He started 1997–98 in Portugal with S.C. Braga, being sacked after a few months (the side eventually reached the domestic cup final) and returning to his country with Sevilla FC, in the second level.
On 9 February 2010, Santos returned to Portugal as a replacement for sacked José Mota at Leixões SC.[4] On 21 October, he returned to his first club Pontevedra after taking over from Ángel Viadero.[5]
