Jorge Manuel Davino Bianchini (born 27 April 1945) is an Argentinian former footballer and chef. Nicknamed "Cholín" in his home country and "Tarzán" in Mexico, he played as a offensive midfielder for a variety of clubs in Argentina, Colombia and Mexico throughout the 1970s. He is most known for playing for León throughout his career, achieving several titles throughout his career as well as being the father of Mexican internationals Flavio and Duilio Davino.
Davino began his career within the Boca Juniors Reserves and Academy throughout his youth career. He was then promoted to the senior squad following his prior success but made his only appearance in the 0–1 defeat against San Lorenzo during the 1965 Argentine Primera División on 11 July.[1] Due to these disappointing results, during the middle of the 1966 season, he switched over to play for Millonarios in Colombia where he got far more consistent success with 19 appearances and 6 goals. He then returned to Argentina to play for Huracán with his debut being on 16 April 1967 against Vélez Sarsfield in a 2–1 victory with goals from his teammates Alfredo Obberti and Hugo Tedesco. Throughout his two seasons with the Globos, he made 35 appearances and scored 11 goals with his final match being a 0–1 defeat against Los Andes on 22 September 1968.[2]
Following this relative success, he once again returned to Colombia to play for Deportivo Cali this time where he made 38 appearances and scoring 10 goals, ultimately helping the club win their 3rd title in the 1969 Campeonato Profesional.[3] Following a brief stint with Kimberley throughout a majority of the 1970 season with twenty-six appearances and two goals,[4] León club manager Antonio Carbajal was interested in signing Argentinian players and alongside his teammate Juan José Valiente and San Lorenzo defender Rafael Albrecht as they all began playing in the Mexican Primera División for the 1970 season with Ferro Carril Oeste forward Roberto Salomone later joining the three for the 1971–72 season. This decision would bring about a football dynasty for the Esmeraldas with their successes beginning in the 1970–71 Copa México as well that season's Campeón de Campeones. This same success would continue into the 1971–72 season with that season's Copa México and Campeón de Campeones with his career with León being well-regarded by both his teammates and fans.[5][6]
Following his success with León, he began playing for Atlético Potosino and Puebla throughout his career in Mexico. When he played for Kimberly in a loan in 1977, met a young Diego Maradona where he saw potential in the future international legend as he went on to win the 1986 FIFA World Cup.[7]
