Now aged 33, the Toulon Tournament 2003 best player has started a new challenge recently : discovering the Chinese Super League as he moved from FC Barcelona to Hebei Fortune during the winter transfer window.
The San Lorenzo-born’s will be focused on a main task : bringing his huge experience to Hebei Fortuna, a club founded in 2010 and playing in the Chinese top flight since 2016 only.

The new Hebei Fortune player has been included in the Argentina squad for the upcoming friendlies against Italy (23rd March) and Spain (27th March).
