Claudio Jeremías Echeverri is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Premier League club Manchester City.

International career

Echeverri has represented Argentina at both under-17 and under-23 levels. Echeverri scored five goals and assisted thrice for Argentina in the 2023 South American U-17 Championship in Ecuador, where Argentina ended third and qualified them for the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Indonesia. On 24 November 2023, he scored a hat-trick in a 3–0 quarter-final victory over rivals Brazil. He scored five goals and won the Bronze Boot as Argentina lost to eventual winners Germany on penalties in the semi-finals before losing to Mali in the third place match. He also represented Argentina U-23 in the 2024 CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament in Venezuela where they qualified for the 2024 Olympic Games.

Style of play

A gifted playmaker, Echeverri has been nicknamed El Diablito (English: little devil) after former Bolivian international footballer Marco Etcheverry, who was nicknamed El Diablo, as the two share "devilish" dribbling, pace in one-on-one situations, and a powerful shot, as well as a similar last name. He has listed Lionel Messi and former River player Juan Fernando Quintero as two players he idolises. Unlike Messi, he is right-footed, but they are similar in stature (171 cm) and share that low centre of gravity dribbling style.
