Manager career

Born in Granada, Andalusia, Cano began his managerial career at lowly Imperio Albolote and subsequently managed neighbours Arenas Armilla in the Tercera División, before moving to Segunda División B side Baza in the 2006 summer. After taking the club to a historical 12th position, he was appointed at the helm of Granada, also in the third level.
In October 2008, Cano left the club and was appointed Poli Ejido manager in January 2010. On 1 July 2010 he was appointed at Segunda División's Salamanca, replacing resigned Jorge D'Alessandro.
Cano was sacked by the Charros on 14 February 2011, after suffering ten consecutive defeats. On 26 July, he joined Melilla, leaving the club in June 2012.
On 10 December 2012, Cano was appointed at the helm of Real Betis B, replacing fired Puma. After achieving promotion back to the third level at the end of the 2013–14 campaign, he signed for Alcoyano; he was sacked on 16 February 2015, after only winning three points out of 18.
On 14 July 2015, Cano was named Elche B manager, but resigned on 3 August due to the club's poor in and out field situation.
Cano was hired by third-tier club Castellón on 10 December 2018, after the dismissal of David Gutiérrez. In his first full season with the Valencians, they won their group before defeating Cornellà in a single-leg playoff final at La Rosaleda Stadium to return to the second division for the first time in a decade.
On 11 January 2021, Cano left the Orelluts on a mutual agreement. He took over Primera División RFEF side Badajoz on 1 July, but was sacked on 8 February 2022.
Cano subsequently worked at third division sides Deportivo de La Coruña and Sabadell, being sacked from the former due to a poor away form, and leaving the latter after failing to avoid relegation in the 2023–24 season. On 3 June 2024, he returned to the second division after being named in charge of Tenerife, but was sacked after five winless matches.
In January 2025, Cano was named assistant manager of Raúl Caneda in the Chinese Super League club Zhejiang FC. On 4 November, he was appointed manager of Zamora CF in his country's third tier.
