## Career

Born in [Valencia](/source/Valencia), Cabello started his career with [Villarreal CF](/source/Villarreal_CF) in 1999, working in their youth setup as a coordinator. He was subsequently appointed manager of [CD Cieza](/source/CD_Cieza) in the following year, and remained in charge for four seasons.[1]

In 2004 Cabello returned to Villarreal, again working in the youth categories; in 2006, he started working as a [scout](/source/Scout_(association_football)) for the first team. In 2008, he was named director of [Valencia CF](/source/Valencia_CF)'s youth setup.[1]

On 18 July 2010, Cabello returned to managerial duties, being again appointed at the helm of Cieza.[2] In August of the following year, he was named manager of [CD Castellón](/source/CD_Castell%C3%B3n).[3]

Cabello left Castellón in January 2012, following the departure of owner Fernando Miralles.[4] He remained without a club until June 2014, as he was appointed [Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa](/source/Cultural_y_Deportiva_Leonesa) manager.[5]

On 4 July 2015, Cabello was named general manager at [Elche CF](/source/Elche_CF),[6] but left his post nearly a month later.[7] In June 2017, he was one of the four assistant managers who joined [Luis Zubeldía](/source/Luis_Zubeld%C3%ADa)'s staff at [Deportivo Alavés](/source/Deportivo_Alav%C3%A9s).[8]

On 17 September 2017, after Zubeldía's dismissal, Cabello was named [interim](/source/Interim_management) of the [Basque](/source/Basque_Country_(autonomous_community)) side.[9] His first professional match occurred three days later, a 0–1 away loss against [Deportivo de La Coruña](/source/Deportivo_de_La_Coru%C3%B1a).
