Tomás Leonardo Lecanda (born 29 January 2002) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Tigre.
Career
Lecanda is product of River Plate's youth academy, having joined in 2011.[1] On 27 September 2019, he signed his first professional contract with his childhood club.[2] Lecanda made his professional debut with River Plate in a 2–1 Copa Libertadores win over Independiente Santa Fe on 19 May 2021; the game was noteworthy as River Plate was hit by a COVID-19 outbreak, resulting in them having no substitute players, and their outfielder Enzo Pérez had to play as goalkeeper.[3]
In January 2022, Lecanda was loaned out to Barracas Central until the end of the year.[4] In June 2022, the spell was terminated and Lecenda instead joined fellow league club Aldosivi on loan for the rest of the year.[5]
International career
Lecanda is a youth international for Argentina. He represented the Argentina U17s in their campaign at the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup, and helped them win the 2019 South American U-17 Championship.[6] He was part of the Argentina U18s that won the 2019 Granatkin Memorial, scoring a goal in the final.[7]
