The Miguel Muñoz Trophy (Spanish: Trofeo Miguel Muñoz) is a football award for team managers in Spanish football, established by Spanish newspaper Marca in 2006, in memory of the legendary Real Madrid manager Miguel Muñoz.

Marcelino is a three-time winner, winning La Liga's award with both Recreativo and Valencia, and the Segunda División award with Zaragoza. He and Juande Ramos (Sevilla) were the first ever co-winners, in La Liga in 2006–07.
Pep Guardiola was the first ever two-time winner in La Liga, with Barcelona.
Unai Emery was the first ever two-time winner in Segunda División, with Lorca Deportiva and Almería.

The award is based on MARCA's subjective scoring system: in which a manager is scored out of three, each match, for his team's performances. The manager with the highest points total, in each of La Liga and the Segunda División, is declared their respective league's winner at the end of the season.
