Career[]

Giménez's career started with Nueva Chicago.[1][3] He was promoted into their first-team in March 2015, when he made his professional debut in a 2–1 loss away from home against Gimnasia y Esgrima.[1] It occurred during the 2015 Primera División season, which included three goals in fourteen appearances as Nueva Chicago were relegated.[1] In Primera B Nacional, Giménez netted eight goals in twenty-one matches to help the club finish seventh.[1] On 5 July 2016, newly-promoted Primera División team Talleres signed Giménez.[4][5] He scored his first goal in November 2017 versus Arsenal de Sarandí.[1]

July 2018 saw Giménez depart on loan to Primera División team San Martín.[1] Two goals, against Banfield and Huracán, across twenty-two appearances followed as the club suffered relegation.[1] Giménez remained in the top-flight for 2019–20 after signing temporary terms with Arsenal de Sarandí.[1] He netted goals against Godoy Cruz, Unión Santa Fe, Racing Club, River Plate, Lanús, Patronato and Aldosivi in the curtailed, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, campaign.[1] In July 2020, Giménez was loaned to the United Arab Emirates with Pro League outfit Baniyas; penning a contract until mid-2021.[2][6]

Giménez, after a friendly goal against Al Ain, scored three goals in his first three competitive games for Baniyas, as a debut goal versus Al-Wasl was followed by strikes in victories over Fujairah and Khor Fakkan.[1] He went goalless across his next two appearances, before scoring in a League Cup first round encounter with Hatta on 12 November.[1] After then going twelve matches without a goal, Giménez netted twice in a 3–3 draw away to Al Jazira on 18 February.[1]
