Career

Godoy joined Bolivian side Always Ready in 2015, initially as manager of the youth and reserve sides. In September 2019, he was an interim manager of the first team after the departure of Julio César Baldivieso,[1] but his reign only lasted one day as the club hired Sebastián Núñez. He was also an interim manager of the main squad previously on two occasions, both in the Copa Simón Bolívar.[2][3]

In December 2019, after Núñez left and the club hired Eduardo Villegas for the 2020 season, Godoy was an interim manager for the last two matches of the campaign.[4] He subsequently returned to his previous role, but was named permanent first team manager on 29 July 2021, in the place of sacked Omar Asad.[5][6]

Demoted to the reserve squad of Always Ready on 29 January 2022,[7] Godoy was appointed in charge of fellow top tier side Universitario de Vinto on 15 August.[8] On 27 December, he resigned from the latter club just weeks after agreeing to a new deal,[9] and returned to Always Ready the following day.[10]

On 6 March 2023, after the club's elimination in the 2023 Copa Libertadores, Godoy was sacked,[11] and returned to U de Vinto on 14 July.[12]
