Felipe Peña Biafore (born 20 April 2001) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Lanús.

Career

Peña is a product of River Plate's youth academy, having joined in 2012. On 14 February 2020, he signed his first professional contract with his childhood club.[1] He 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.[2]

After a loan spell, Peña joined Lanús permanently in August 2024.[3]
