Argentine football is in mourning following the confirmation of José Sanfilippo’s death at the age of 91. The legendary former striker passed away in the city of Buenos Aires, leaving an immense void in the national sport, where he established himself as San Lorenzo de Almagro’s all-time top scorer and one of the most relentless finishers of all time.

Born with a gift for goals, the “Nene” built an extraordinary career that turned him into a legend of the Ciclón, the club where he broke every attacking record. In addition to his iconic spell at the Boedo institution, Sanfilippo also successfully wore the shirts of Boca Juniors, Banfield, and the Argentina national team, leaving an indelible mark on every squad he was part of thanks to his remarkable class and effectiveness inside the box.
