About the player
Darío Benedetto arrived at Barcelona SC in January 2026 on a six-month deal reportedly worth no more than $10,000 a month. By mid-2026 he had repaid the gamble with five goals in eleven league appearances.
It was enough to persuade Boca Juniors to sign him in 2016.
Boca gave him his cruellest moment. An ACL rupture in November 2017 kept him out for six months, yet he returned in time for the 2018 Copa Libertadores run, scoring twice against Palmeiras in the semi-final and again in the final against River Plate — a match Boca lost on penalties. He was runner-up in the competition again in 2023, after a second spell back at the club.
The years since have taken him from Querétaro to Olimpia in Paraguay, where his stay ended after 13 goalless matches, and briefly to Newell's Old Boys before his move to Ecuador.
