Facundo Hernán Farías (born 28 August 2002) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Estudiantes.[3]
Farías started off with Escuela de Fútbol UNL, prior to having a stint in the academy of Corinthians Santa Fe.[4] In 2015, Farías headed off to Colón's youth system.[4]
November 2019 saw the midfielder moved into the club's first-team squad, ahead of a Primera División home fixture with Atlético Tucumán.[1] Farías' professional debut subsequently arrived, as he featured for the final nineteen minutes of a defeat at the Estadio Brigadier General Estanislao López on 2 November after replacing Mauro Da Luz.[1] Farías scored three goals in eight Copa de la Liga Profesional matches; versus Defensa y Justicia, Central Córdoba and Atlético Tucumán.[1]
In July 2023, he was signed by Inter Miami, playing alongside fellow Argentine Lionel Messi.[3] After suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury in pre-season training, he was ruled out for the entire 2024 season.[5]
On 31 January 2025, it was confirmed that he had returned to Argentina to sign for Estudiantes.[6]

In 2015, Farías was called up to the Argentina U15s.[7] Farías received call-ups to train with the Argentina U17s in 2019.[7][8][9][10]
In October 2023, Farias received his first call up to the Argentina national team for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Paraguay and Peru. However, he was an unused substitute in both games.[11]
