Career
He joined the youth system at Newell's Old Boys as a teenager in 2017.[2] He played prior to that for Peñarol de Elortondo. He made his senior Argentina Primera Division debut for Newell's in August 2022 against Godoy Cruz de Mendoza.[3][4][5] In the October of that year he signed his first professional contract with the club.[6] He played 18 matches for Newell's Old Boys in 2024 and was under contract until the end of 2025, but was heavily linked with a transfer to Brazilian side Vasco de Gama in September 2024.[7][8] However, that move fell through upon the end of the Brazilian transfer window.[9]
He joined Major League Soccer club Philadelphia Union on a year-long loan in December 2024, with the option to make the transfer permanent.[10][11] He scored on his first league start for the club in March 2025, against St. Louis City SC.[12]
