In total, he played 203 games in his career, never scored goals, but provided six assists. His only professional title is the 2023 Argentine Super Cup with River.

After standing out at Talleres, he was signed by River for about 50 million reais, but stayed only one year at the club and went to CSKA for about 23 million reais, less than half the amount paid by the Argentine club.

In Russia, he struggled with injuries and played only 11 games.
