Federico Versaci (born 16 February 2002) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Vélez Sarsfield.[3]

Club career[]

Versaci joined the Vélez Sarsfield academy at the age of five.[4] He remained there for the entirety of his youth career, eventually making the move into senior football towards the end of 2020 under manager Mauricio Pellegrino.[3] In November, he made the substitute's bench for a Copa Sudamericana win over Deportivo Cali and a Copa de la Liga Profesional defeat to Gimnasia y Esgrima; both at home.[3] Versaci's professional debut soon arrived on 5 December in a fixture away to Patronato in the latter competition, as the player replaced Mauro Pittón with ten minutes remaining of a goalless draw.[3]

International career[]

Versaci represented Argentina at the 2017 South American U-15 Championship on home soil.[4][5] He scored once, a penalty against Colombia, as they won the trophy.[4][6][7] In March 2018, Versaci received a call-up from the U17s for a friendly with Huracán.[4] He played in the match, though departed prematurely after suffering a ligament injury; which kept him out of action for almost a year.[4] Further U17 calls arrived in 2019.[8][9]
