Career

"Depetris at 11 was more famous than [Lionel] Messi. – I remember Depetris played in a tournament in Córdoba against Newell's in the final. He played against Messi. Depetris' team won. After the game, all the microphones, all the journalists surrounded Depetris. Nobody went near Messi."

—In an interview with Richard Fitzpatrick of Bleacher Report, Lionel Messi's teammate from La Maquina del '87 (Newell's Old Boys youth team) Franco Falleroni pointed out that there was more noise being made in Rosario about Depetris, who was a year younger than Messi. [4]

Depetris started his career at Club Atlético Brown San Vicente and played later for Newell's Old Boys de Rosario. [5] In summer 2000 in the age of eleven signed for Italian Serie A side AC Milan [6] and was 2003 loaned to River Plate. [7] He was signed by Brescia in summer 2005, but due to FIFA rule, his transfer would be made official after his 18th birthday. [8] He scored in his debut and only appearances in 2005-06 Serie B season. [9] De Petris played the 2010/2011 season for A.C. Chioggia Sottomarina and US Sanremese Calcio 1904. [10]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">New Maradona</span> Title given to Argentine football players

New Maradona or New Diego was a title given by the press and public to promising Argentine football players in reference to Diego Maradona as a benchmark. Since Maradona retired, people had been anticipating someone to lead the Argentina national team to a World Cup final, like Maradona did in 1986 and 1990. As a consequence, very talented youngsters were quickly labeled as the New Maradona, sometimes without any similarity in playing style. The New Maradonas were predominantly players in attacking or advanced playmaking roles — forwards, wingers, or attacking midfielders. The term gradually fell out of use after Lionel Messi successfully managed to lead Argentina to World Cup finals in 2014 and 2022, winning it in the latter, arguably emulating and surpassing Maradona to become the most successful Argentine footballer ever.
