Coaching career

Personal life
[edit]From his maternal line, Olea is of Mapuche descent, since his last surname, Hueche (or Weche), means "young" in Mapudungun.[3]
As a footballer, he was nicknamed El Caballero del Gol (The Gentleman of the Goal) due to the fact that he used to put on a tie to celebrate his goals since he played for Universidad de Concepción.[4]
He has stated that cooking is also his passion. So, he took part in the first season of the cooking TV show Master Chef Chile in 2014.[4]
