Matías Soulé Malvano (born 15 April 2003) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder, right winger or forward for Serie B club Frosinone, on loan from Juventus.
Soulé started his career aged six for Kimberley and six years later moved to Vélez [2] with whom he refused the proposal to sign a professional contract. [3] In January 2020, he moved to Juventus as free transfer. [4] Soulé scored five goals and five assists in 30 appearances with under-19s in the 2020–21 season. [5]
Soulé made his official debut for Juventus U23—the reserve team of Juventus—in a first-round Coppa Italia Serie C 3–2 win against Pro Sesto on 22 August 2021. [6] He made his Serie C debut on 28 August in a 2–1 win to Pergolettese. [7] On 10 September, first-team manager Massimiliano Allegri included Soulé in the match-day squad for the Serie A game against Napoli. [8]
On 15 September, Soulé scored his first two career goals in a 3–2 win against Feralpisalò in the second round of Coppa Italia Serie C. [9] On 24 September, he extended his contract with Juventus until 2024 with option until 2026. [10] On 7 November, he scored his first goal in Serie C in a 1–0 win against Lecco with a curling shoot in the 43rd minute. [11] On 30 November, Soulé made his official debut for the first team in a 2–0 win against Salernitana coming on as substitute during the stoppage time. [12]
He ended his first professional season with five goals in 34 matches [13] with the addition of two first-team appearances. [14] Throughout the season, he also played for Juventus U19 in the UEFA Youth League. [15] With two goals in six games, Soulé helped the U19s reach the semifinals, their best-ever placing in the competition. [16] During the semifinal against Benfica, Soulé took the last penalty of the game which he missed causing his side to lose 4–3 at penalty shoot-outs after a 2–2 draw. [17]
On 11 October 2022, Soulé made his UEFA Champions League debut, playing for 15 minutes in a defeat against Maccabi Haifa. [18] On the 29th of the same month, he made his first-minute debut for the first team, in the match against Lecce. [19] On 12 March 2023, he scored his first first-team goal in stoppage time of Juventus– Sampdoria 4–2. [20] He finished his first season with the first team with 19 appearances [14] in mid-May, to make part of Argentina U20's team at the 2023 FIFA U20 World Cup. [21]
On 28 August 2023, Soulé joined Serie A club Frosinone on a season-long loan. [22] During the first half of the 2023–24 campaign, he managed to accomplish the most successful dribbles in the top European competitions. [23] He finished his loan season as top scorer for the club with 11 goals, and the player with most dribbles won in Serie A in 102 occasions. [24]
Soulé made three appearances for Argentina U16. [25]
On 3 November 2021, he was first called up for the Argentina national team ahead of the qualification rounds for the 2022 FIFA World Cup against Uruguay and Brazil; [26] but did not make either of the match day squads. [27]
In May 2023, Soulé was called up to Argentina U20's 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup campaign by coach Javier Mascherano. [28]
Due to his Italian citizenship through ius sanguinis, following his impressive Serie A performances with Frosinone, Soulé was publicly considered in 2023 by Italy manager Luciano Spalletti for a potential call-up with the senior Azzurri squad. [29] [30]
Soulé is a left-footed right winger, noted for his dribbling ability and set-piece taking, earning him comparisons to Angel Di Maria. [31] [32]
Soulé was born in Argentina and is of Italian descent, and holds dual citizenship. [33] Soulé considers Independiente his favourite team and Lionel Messi his favourite player. [4]
