Mauro Esteban Navas (born 20 October 1974 in Buenos Aires) is a former Argentine footballer, who played as a defender.

His professional career was spent, other than in his country, where he played in various teams and divisions, in Italy and Spain; in the latter nation, he played four years with Barcelona's RCD Espanyol.

Football career

After appearing prominently in his country for Club Atlético Banfield and Racing Club de Avellaneda, Navas signed with Italian side Udinese Calcio, only missing one match as it finished seventh and qualified for the UEFA Cup.

During the next four seasons, he played in Spain for RCD Espanyol in La Liga, starting in his first season - which ended with the domestic cup conquest - and appearing regularly in the remaining. After a sole season in the same country, with modest CD Leganés, Navas returned to his homeland in 2004, continuing to play mainly in the lower leagues - had a brief spell in the country's top division, with modest Club Almagro.

On 22 March 2010, Navas began his coaching career, joining Chacarita Juniors who had just dismissed Fernando Gamboa, fired after the defeat against Club Atlético Huracán (2–0);^[1] however, he lasted less than one month, leaving the club on April 19.^[2]
