Playing career

Born in Arica, Chile, Valenzuela played for two clubs in the Chilean Primera División.[1] He made his professional debut in 1962 with San Luis de Quillota,[2] playing for them until 1964.[3][4] As a member of them, he also faced the English club Stoke City in a friendly match on 3 June 1964.[5]

In 1965, he switched to Santiago Morning until 1969.[6][7] After the team was relegated to the Segunda División in 1969, he moved to play to Mexico thanks to Carlos Reinoso, then a player of América, in place of his compatriots Leopoldo Vallejos and Aurelio Vásquez.[8] Back in Chile, he rejoined Santiago Morning until 1972.[2]

At international level, he was a member of the Chile national team between 1965 and 1967.[2]

As a football coach, Valenzuela led Santiago Morning,[9] Audax Italiano,[10] Deportes Iquique,[11] Regional Atacama[12] and Deportes Arica in his homeland. In addition, he led the Cobresal youth system in 1984.[13]

In 1986, he took part in the Colegio de Entrenadores de Fútbol de Chile (National Association of Football Managers of Chile).[2]

Once in Mexico, he led Nacional Tijuana in 2003.[14] He also worked in the youth systems of clubs such as Guadalajara and Toluca.[15]

He has also started football academies like Atenea and the namesake, Aurelio Valenzuela[2] and worked with women players like the Baja California state team in the Olimpiada Nacional tournament.[16]
