Lionel Sebastián Scaloni (Spanish pronunciation: ; born 16 May 1978) is an Argentine retired footballer, and is the manager of the Argentina national team. A player of wide range, he played as a right back or right midfielder.
He spent most of his professional career with Deportivo in Spain, amassing totals of 258 games and 15 goals over 12 seasons in La Liga with three teams. He also spent several years in Italy, with Lazio and Atalanta.
Scaloni won seven caps for Argentina between 2003 and 2006, and was part of their 2006 World Cup squad.
Born in Rosario, Santa Fe, Scaloni began his career in the Argentine Primera División with local club Newell's Old Boys and then Estudiantes de La Plata, before joining Spain's Deportivo de La Coruña in March 1998 for 405 million pesetas.
Regularly used with the Galicians over an eight-and-a-half-year stint, he competed with Manuel Pablo and Víctor for both starting spots on the right flank. However, due to injury, he only appeared in 14 La Liga matches as Depor managed its first league title.
