Raúl Erasto Gutiérrez Jacobo (born 16 October 1966) is a Mexican former footballer and the current coach of the Mexico olympic team. In 2011, he coached the under-17 team to their second World Championship.

He was a part of the Mexico national team in the 1994 FIFA World Cup. He was capped in 37 games for the Mexico national football team. He played for Atlante F.C. from 1988 until 1994, and he played for Club América from 1994 until 2001.

As the coach of the Mexico U-17 national team, he won the 2011 FIFA U-17 World Cup. This was Mexico's second FIFA U-17 World Cup title, and also became the first team to win the tournament at home.

He continued to coach Mexico U-17 in 2013, in which he qualified them to the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup. Mexico started the U-17 World cup with a 6-1 loss to Nigeria, but recovered with a 3-1 win against Iraq. Mexico would reach the final after beating teams like Italy, Brazil, and Argentina. In the final, Mexico would lose once again with Nigeria 3-0.

After the success at U-17 level, it was made official that Raúl Gutiérrez will coach the Mexico U-21 team, which will participate in the Central American and Caribbean Games, 2015 Pan American Games, 2015 CONCACAF Men's Olympic Qualifying Championship, and 2016 Summer Olympics.
