Santiago Simón (born 13 June 2002) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a winger for River Plate.[3]

Club career

[edit]

Simón started playing football at the age of four at Cooperativa Tortuguitas.[2][4][5] He joined River Plate's academy in 2013, following a week-long trial.[6] He spent seven years in their system, notably moving into the reserve squad in February 2020; debuting versus Banfield on 14 February.[6][7][8] Nine months later, on 20 November, Simón was promoted into Marcelo Gallardo's senior squad for a Copa de la Liga Profesional match with the aforementioned Banfield.[3] His debut subsequently arrived, with the winger replacing Cristian Ferreira for the final seventeen minutes of a 2–0 away win.[3]

International career

Simón represented Argentina at U17 level.[3][9] After featuring in an October 2018 friendly against their United States counterparts, Simón was selected by Pablo Aimar for the 2019 South American U-17 Championship, which they won, and the subsequent 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup; appearing a total of five times across both competitions.[3]
