Valentín Larralde (born 15 November 2000) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a midfielder.[3]
Larralde spent his embryonic years with a local team in El Pato, which preceded a two-year stint with Independiente and subsequently Gimnasia y Esgrima.[4][1] In 2018, Larralde joined Defensa y Justicia.[4] 2020 saw the central midfielder move into Hernán Crespo's first-team.[4][5] He was initially an unused substitute for Copa Libertadores group stage wins over Delfín and Olimpia, before making his senior debut in the away match with Delfín on 1 October 2020; coming on for the final ten minutes of a three-goal defeat.[3] Larralde signed his first professional contract a week later.[6][7][8]
In June 2021, Larralde was loaned out to Arsenal Sarandí for the rest of 2021.[9] After returning from the spell, he was loaned out again, this time to San Martín de Tucumán until the end of 2022.[10]
