Jeremía Alexandre "Jere" Recoba Perrone (born 8 October 2003) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Segunda División club Las Palmas.[3] Born in Italy to former Uruguay professional footballer Álvaro Recoba, he is a citizen of both countries.[4]

Early life

[edit]

Recoba was born in Como, Italy. His father, Álvaro Recoba, was a long-term Uruguay international footballer who spent most of his career in Italy, primarily with Inter Milan.[5] His mother is Lorena Perrone, who is of Italian descent.[6][7] His half-brother Julio Recoba is also a footballer.[8]

While the most common spelling of the name Jeremiah in Spanish is Jeremías, Recoba's father wrote the name incorrectly on his birth certificate.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Nacional

[edit]

After playing in the youth ranks of Danubio, Recoba signed for Nacional in 2021; his father had made the same move in 1996. In September 2023, he signed his first professional contract at Nacional, to last through 2024.[9]

Recoba made his professional debut on 29 October 2023 in a 4–0 Copa Uruguay win over Potencia.[10] On the opening day of the 2024 season, he played the last eight minutes as a substitute for Mauricio Pereyra.[11][12] On 28 February, he was given a surprise first start in a Copa Libertadores group game at home to Venezuela's Academia Puerto Cabello also at the Estadio Gran Parque Central, winning 2–0.[13]

On 20 April 2024, Recoba scored his first goal in his 14th match – a 6–2 home win over Rampla Juniors in the domestic league – having already registered two assists in his career.[14] Four days later, he netted again in a 2–1 Libertadores group win over another Venezuelan opponent, Deportivo Táchira; he was congratulated for this feat by former Nacional player Luis Suárez.[15]

Las Palmas

[edit]

On 19 July 2025, Recoba joined Spanish club Las Palmas on a three-year contract. The Segunda División club bought 50% of his economic rights for an initial fee of US$750,000, with the fee set to double if the club won promotion to La Liga or he was sold before the end of his contract.[16]

International career

[edit]

Recoba is eligible to represent Italy or Uruguay at international level. He has stated he would only play for the latter.[17]
