Career

In 2002 when his father was the coach he made his debut for River Plate during a game against Rosario Central on 19 May 2002, as a substitute for Eduardo Coudet. He was transferred to Talleres de Cordoba where he almost did not play. In 2004, he moved to Deportivo Colonia in Uruguay. In 2005, he played seven times for the English club Oxford United in Football League Two, after his father was appointed manager. He came back to Argentina to play for Defensa y Justicia and Platense. In 2007, he transferred to San Lorenzo de Almagro.
Between 2009 and 2010 he played for All Boys, before retiring at the age of 28.
