Career

edit

Coronel spent the majority of his youth career with Social Ramallo, prior to moving to Newell's Old Boys' system at the age of sixteen.[4][5] Coronel left the latter in 2016, subsequently joining Defensores de Belgrano; a squad he shared with his brother.[4] He made his Torneo Federal A debut on 4 September 2016 against Rivadavia, but would leave the game early after receiving a red card in stoppage time; despite only coming on with fourteen minutes left.[1] Coronel scored his first senior goal on 24 September 2017 away to Unión Sunchales, before netting a brace in an eventual 5–0 win a week later against Douglas Haig.[1]

After forty total appearances for Defensores de Belgrano, Coronel departed to Primera División outfit Argentinos Juniors in July 2019; having not featured in the preceding seven months due to contractual disagreements between him and Defensores.[6][7] Coronel didn't appear at first-team level for Argentinos in 2019–20, though was on the substitutes' bench once for a defeat to Vélez Sarsfield in March 2020.[1][8] His debut for the club eventually arrived later that year on 31 October, with the forward playing for eighty-three minutes of a goalless draw with San Lorenzo in the Copa de la Liga Profesional.[1][9][10] On 8 July 2022, Coronel joined fellow league club Atlético Tucuman on loan until December 2023, free of charge and with a purchase option.[11]

Personal life

edit

Coronel has other footballers in his family.[4] His brother, Franco, started his senior career with Defensores de Belgrano, while sister Emilia played for Social Ramallo.[4][12] Their father, Lucho, also played football in the Ramallo area.[4]
