Luciano Darío Vietto (Spanish pronunciation: [lu´θjano ´βjetto]; born 5 December 1993) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Liga BBVA club Villarreal and the Argentina national team. He plays as a forward and is known for his pace and the ability to dribble past defenders with ease. He can also be played as a playmaker due to his impressive technique and his vision for goal scoring chances.
Vietto was born in a small town of Balnearia in the Province of Córdoba. He started his career at the young age of 7 as he joined his local team Independiente de Balnearia. At the age of 15, Vietto joined Argentine Primera División club Estudiantes hoping to play professional football in the future. [1] However two years later, Vietto was released by Estudiantes. Vietto then joined Racing Club's youth academy a year later.
In 2011, Luciano Vietto signed a professional contract with the Argentine Primera División club Racing Club. He made his club debut on October 26, 2011 under Diego Simeone, who subbed him on in the 85th minute against Lanús. [2] On 23 December 2011, Simeone left Racing Club as he was unveiled as the new manager of Liga BBVA powerhouse Atlético Madrid [3]. With the departure of Diego Simeone, Racing Club hired, retired Argentine footballer, Luis Zubeldía as their new manager.
At the beginning of the 2012-13 season, Luciano Vietto became a regular starter under Luis Zubeldía. He started his first game and scored his goal for Racing against San Martín on September 03rd 2012. He also scored a hat trick in the same game and lead Racing Club to a 3-1 victory. [4] Vietto finished the 2012–13 Argentine Primera División season by scoring 13 goals in 32 games played. [5] His impressive performances in the league, attracted a lot of interest from top European clubs such as Premier League club Liverpool and Serie A champions Juventus. [6] However, on March 26th 2013, Luciano Vietto was signed a 4-year contract extension with Racing that kept him til 2017 [7].
With a new contract and amazing last season performances, the 2013-14 season was a complete opposite for Vietto. The club performed poorly as it failed to win a single game their first 5 games of the season. Due to this terrible start, Luis Zubeldia was sacked as the club manager [8] and was replaced Carlos Ischia [9]. However, Ischia could not turn around the things either. Within 5 games, Carlos Ischia was relieved of his duties as the team had lost 4 games and failed to win a single game under his guidance. The horrendous start to the season affected Vietto’s performances as he failed to score a single goal in any of those first 10 games he played. Winless in their first 10 games, on October 14 2013 the club hired former Racing Club manager Reinaldo Merlo. Reinaldo was able turn things around and the team finally won its game on October 28th 2013 after a losing streak of 13 games [10]. In the very next game, Lucino Vietto was able to end his goal drought by scoring 2 goals in 3-1 win against Gimansia. However, he only went on to score 3 more throughout the entire season. As a result, Vietto finished the 2013–14 Argentine Primera División season by scoring only 5 goals in 35 games played. [11]
On 4th August 2014, Villarreal officially announced the signing of Luciano Veitto from Racing Club. Vietto signed a five-year contract with Villarreal and was delighted that this deal was completed. He stated that coming to Spain and the chance to play for Villarreal is “a dream come true”. [12]
Luciano Vietto made his international debut for the Argentina national under-20 football team on January 9th 2013 against Chile, at the U-20 South American Championship [13]. He scored his first goal for Argentina on January 11th 2013 against Paraguay in the same competition. In the end, Vietto finish the tournament with 2 goals in 4 games he played.
