Tomás Alejandro Chancalay (born 1 January 1999) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Racing Club on a loan from Colón.

Club career[]

Born in Viale, Entre Ríos, Chancalay joined Colón's youth setup in 2006, from hometown side Arsenal de Viale.[2] On 10 February 2017, he signed his first professional contract with the club.[3]

Promoted to the first team ahead of the 2017–18 campaign, Chancalay made his professional – and Primera División – debut on 26 August 2017, coming on as a second-half substitute for Nicolás Leguizamón in a 1–1 away draw against Rosario Central.[4] In his next appearance on 8 September, he scored his first senior goal as Colón beat Arsenal de Sarandí away from home.[5] He netted further goals against San Martín and Godoy Cruz in twenty-four total appearances in his first season, as Colón qualified for the 2018 Copa Sudamericana.[1]

On 5 February 2021, Chancalay moved to Primera División side Racing, on a loan deal.[6] The deal includes a purchase option.[6]

International career[]

Chancalay was selected by the Argentina under-20s for the 2018 L'Alcúdia International Football Tournament, but was later removed after Colón chose to withdraw him.[7] He had previously trained with the U20s, including against the full side at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[8] Chancalay was called up by Fernando Batista for the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[9] He appeared in two matches at the tournament in Poland, as Argentina were eliminated by Mali on penalties after Chancalay missed the decisive spot-kick.[1]
