José Agustín Mauri (born 16 May 1996) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Serie B club Cosenza. Born in Argentina, Mauri is of Italian descent and has represented Italy internationally at youth level.

Club career

Parma

Mauri made his debut for Parma as a substitute on 3 December 2013 in the fourth round of the Coppa Italia, replacing Gianni Munari for the last 27 minutes of a 4–1 home win against A.S. Varese 1910 at the Stadio Ennio Tardini.[2]

On 11 April 2015, he scored the only goal in a 1–0 win against Juventus, with his team in last position and the opponents leading the league.[3] He described it as "the happiest day of my life".[4]

AC Milan

At the start of the 2015–16 season, Mauri joined AC Milan on a four-year deal on a free transfer.[5] However, Milan also paid €4 million to unknown parties.[6] Mauri made his first full debut on 1 December, playing 99 minutes of a Coppa Italia game against Crotone, with Milan winning 3–1 after extra time. He made his Serie A debut for Milan against Chievo Verona on 13 March 2016, playing the last five minutes of the 0–0 away draw.[7]

Empoli

On 30 August 2016, he was loaned out to Serie A club Empoli for the season.[8]

Talleres

On 27 September 2019, he moved to Argentine Primera División side Talleres de Córdoba.[9]

Sporting Kansas City

On 5 August 2021, Mauri signed with MLS side Sporting Kansas City on a one-and-a-half-year deal.[10] In April 2022, the club mutually agreed to terminate contract of Mauri.[11]

Sarmiento

On 12 December 2022, Mauri returned to Argentina, joining Primera División club Sarmiento, signing a one-year contract.[12] On 6 February 2023, he suffered a torn cruciate ligament on his left knee and was sidelined for 6 to 8 months.[13] On 22 January 2024, he extended his contract until December 2024.[14]

Cosenza

On 9 August 2024, Mauri returned to Italy and signed with Cosenza in Serie B for one season, with an option for a second.[15]

International career

As one of his grandmothers was Italian, Mauri is eligible for both Argentina and Italy. Despite playing for Italy's youth international squads, Mauri declined a call-up to the Italian U20 squad, declaring his desire to represent solely Argentina in international competition.

Personal life

His older brother Juan Mauri is also a football player and signed with Milan at the same time as José did.
