Floro was born in Gijón, Asturias. During his professional career he managed Albacete (two spells, starting off in 1989 in Segunda División B and leading the club to a first-ever La Liga promotion in just two years), Real Madrid (winning the Copa del Rey in his first season), Sporting de Gijón, Vissel Kobe, Monterrey, Villarreal– he had already coached the Valencians in the third tier – Mallorca (leaving the Balearic Islands side after just a few months after being appointed in the summer of 2004) and Barcelona SC.
Starting in 2005, Floro briefly worked for former club Real Madrid as director of football, then switched to sports commentator with Telecinco. On 5 July 2013, the Canadian Soccer Association announced him as the new manager of the national team, taking over from interim coach Colin Miller on 1 August.
On 14 September 2016, Floro's contract was not renewed after failing to qualify the team for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. On 23 December, he was appointed at Alajuelense in the Costa Rican Liga FPD.
