Mini bio

How it started.

Tagliafico grew up around Banfield, the club he calls his second home. He made his first-team debut in March 2011, spent the 2012/13 season on loan at Real Murcia, then returned to help Banfield win promotion. He joined Independiente in 2015 and became captain, lifting the Copa Sudamericana in 2017.

The breakthrough.

Ajax signed him in January 2018. In the following season he scored three Champions League goals as the club reached the semi-finals, while also winning the Dutch league and cup. He moved to Lyon in 2022 and started Argentina’s World Cup final victory against France that December.

Away from matchday.

As Tagliafico3, he shares travel vlogs, gaming and card openings on YouTube and streams on Twitch. His creative interests also include drawing, especially manga and anime characters. He has contributed to a clothing capsule with his wife, Caro Calvagni, inspired in part by his interest in Japan.
